I agree with Pete completely...the best way to do this is on the client side with Javascript (or even a Java or Flash app). Search the internet for Javascript clock, Java clock or Flash clock and I'll bet you find a lot of results of clock apps you can download.
One side note...this could be done with PHP although it is very impractical and, hence, not worth doing this way. With PHP, you could just code the page to automatically refresh every so often (i.e. every second or every minute). Then, when the page refreshes, PHP would display the current time. Refreshing every second is just plain ridiculous...don't do it. Even refreshing every minute is too often and the visitor will wind up getting annoyed and leave.
