That's all; very simple, but accurate:

My clock on the left and the windows clock on the right.
Code Explanation
this.onEnterFrame = function()
{
var date = new Date();
A Date object has the current time and date of the computer its running.We need to create one to get the time from it.
var hours = date.getHours();
The function getHours() returns the current hour.
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
getMinutes() returns the minutes.
var seconds = date.getSeconds();
And getSeconds() returns the seconds.
min._rotation = 360 / 60 * minutes;
To get the angle needed just divide the number of minutes that exists (60!) by 360º and multiply by the number of minutes we have now.
hour._rotation = 360 / 12 * hours;
sec._rotation = 360 / 60 * seconds;
}
The other two angles use the same logic.Note that the hours uses the 12-hour notation instead of the 24-hour notation.
