A simple clock on every display? (lemm.ee)

I am trying to find something that displays the current time on every display that does not run in a window as i don't want yet another window jockeying for space in my tiled organization on my secondary monitor. Ive tried finding things that can put a clock in the dock, Ive tried finding things that duplicates the top bar to all monitors, I haven't been able to find anything. My primary concern is that when I am playing a game in fullscreen I cannot see the clock as its hidden behind the game. Praying someone here has a solution. I am about to go buy a clock and put it on my desk but that seems silly considering I'm in front of a computer -_-

You can customize the window type in conky, so you absolutely could configure it to be a normal window.

Well i am also trying to avoid having a clock as a window jockeying for screen space with my other tiled second monitor. I was trying to find a solution that plays on the topbar or dock as they take nearly no space on screen.
