You would be infringing on the companies name, but not on the product. The company doesn't hold a patent or copyright on a 3d model of the clock, only on the physical clock. Same goes for cars. Except in cases where the car maker uses 3d geometry in place of the actual car in their comercials (a widely going trend) then they most likely also hold a copyright on the 3d model.
