Well, it's not exactly the same, but the "GLText (clock)" option in
xscreensaver gives a very nice 3D digital clock that can be configured
to show the day/date/time and arbitrary text. It can also move and
rotate. It's all configurable, so maybe you can get it to display just
what you want. It doesn't do an analog clock however.
