If you would like to have a clock that always shows the current UTC time, a good option is to use Freetown in Africa. They use UTC+00:00, and don't ever change throughout the year.

The OS X Dashboard doesn't include a Clock widget specifically for GMT/UTC (Universal Coordinated Time). Even if you try choosing London, which is usually GMT, it doesn't always match UTC—since London observes daylight savings time.

On the iPhone you can type "UTC" in the choose a city search box and UTC will show up and work. This also seems to work on the Date & Time control panel in the Time Zone tab on my OSX 10.8.4 system. I suspect it might work in the Dashboard widget if there was a search box that allowed UTC to be entered.

The Freetown hint seems to be the only option. I don't see a UTC option as on the iPhone.
