Although the default colors for the Clock widget are black and white, the widget was designed in color; unfortunately, the toolkit makes specifying these colors in a device-independent manner difficult.  If you want to see the correct colors, add the following lines to your resource file: Clock∗Background: grey
Clock∗BorderColor: light blue
Clock∗hour: yellow
Clock∗jewel: yellow
Clock∗minute: yellow
