I haven't tried this, but it might fit your needs:

gjackclock - JACK transport big clock.
usage: gjackclock [Options]
Options:
  -a, --ontop               start 'always-on-top' of other windows
  -C <color>                background-color ('#RRGGBB' or name eg 'black')
  -c <color>                text-color ('#RRGGBB' or name eg 'blue')
  -d <sec>                  set seek-distance (default 10.0 sec)
  -f <FPS>, --fps <FPS>     set timecode-fps (default 25 or timebase-master)
  -h, --help                display this help and exit
  -I, --ignore-timemaster   ignore JACK-timebase-master FPS setting
  -l <file>,
    --config <file>         load configuration from <file>
  -N, --no-scale            do not scale font when resizing the window
  -n, --no-fps-display      hide FPS info from display
  -q, --quiet, --silent     inhibit usual output
  -S <FONT-Family>          default 'Monospace'
  -s <FONT-size>            default 60
  -t, --table-layout        render time in equally spaced table (use with
                            variable width fonts)
  -V, --version             print version information and exit
  -w <XOFFxYOFF>            set window position (eg '100x200')
Notes:
  * use -f 29.97 for drop-frame timecode
  * default key-bindings (override with ~/.gjackclockrc)
    'space'   - toggle play/pause
    'p'       - pause
    'b'       - play
    'r'       - rewind
    '<'       - skip backward
    '>'       - skip forward
   CTRL-[q|w] - quit


There are probably other ways to get key bindings to work, perhaps to
make use of transport controls on some multi-media keyboards...
