Ok, then you already have fvwm-themes installed, it enhances your fvwm
instalation even if you don't use it. Try the following from FvwmConsole:

  FvwmScript FvwmApplet-Day
  FvwmScript FvwmApplet-DayClock
  FvwmScript FvwmApplet-DigitalClock

If you use colorsets, you may also give 2 colorset numbers as parameters.

Other 64x64 applets (including Date/Time) as candidates for swallowing:
