I have the following in my "~/.Xdefaults" file:

xclock*geometry: 200x200-10+10
xclock*chime: true
xclock*background: SteelBlue

It is currently working.  However, there were times when it did not work
and then started again without any apparent action on my part.

Unfortunately, I do not know why.
