Pros

  • Keeps accurate time
  • Customizable interface
  • Four different skins

Cons

  • Not necessary for those who like the default Windows clock

Horloger is a classy mobile clock for your Windows PC desktop. It comes with built-in transparency effects, which look very attractive. It also supports a high-quality animation engine that makes it look far more stylish than the default clocks that come with your system.

Chances are that you won't need this, because the clock built into the taskbar is more than enough for most users. That being said, it's a much higher quality clock than the one that ships with Windows and it displays the same time, so you won't lose out on any functionality by switching over to it.

You can configure the clock to display the time with a 3D look or one that's modeled after the appearance of HTC applications. It comes with a 2D option as well as one that's made to appear like the clock in older Windows phones. That's an excellent solution for anyone who misses the look and feel of those applications.

Transplants to the Windows platform will also love the option to display the time using a style that resembles the clocks present on Apple Macintosh computers. Users are free to pick any of these skins and resize the clock accordingly.

Of course, they're also free to configure almost anything else in regards to the app's basic interface by simply flipping a few options in the integrated control panel. That makes it particularly attractive for those who want to do something special that they wouldn't have been able to do with the virtual timepieces that come bundled with the Windows operating system. Best of all, the control panel functions like any of the others that come with your PC.
