Not sure <I>why</I> you would want to do this, but anyway...
You could probably get clever with Ansi escape codes to move
the cursor around for you:
echo "\033[<STRONG>R</STRONG>;<STRONG>C</STRONG>H"
Puts the cursor at row <STRONG>R</STRONG> and column <STRONG>C</STRONG>

genclock
GENCLOCK(1) General Commands Manual GENCLOCK(1)
NAME
genclock - generate a RADIANCE description of a clock
SYNOPSIS
genclock [ -f face_mat ][ -c case_mat ][ -n name ] { HH:MM | hours }
DESCRIPTION
Genclock produces a RADIANCE scene description of an analog clock showing the given hour. The hour may either be given as HH:MM or decimal
hours.
The face of the clock will have a radius of 1.0 units, with the surrounding case 1.1 (2.2 diameter). The origin is at the center of the
back, and the face looks in the positive X-direction. The 12 o'clock direction corresponds to the positive Z-axis. (The Y-axis direction
is 3 o'clock.) The xform(1) command may be used to resize and relocate the clock as desired.
Normally, genclock produces all of the materials necessary for its own description, but options are provided to specify alternate materials
for the face and case. The numbers on the face are in dark lettering, so the face material must be relatively light for them to show up
well. By default, the clock is given the name "clock," but this may be changed with the -n option.
EXAMPLE
To produce a 12 inch diameter clock showing 10:35 and hang it at 60 on a wall facing the Y-direction at Y=10:
genclock 10:35 | xform -s 6 -rz 90 -t 20 10 60
