I want to get rid of the clock menu display in Mac OSX. How can this be done?

Hold and drag it out of the menu. If date and weekday are shown, they will also be removed.

Alternatively, you can disable and customize the clock in:
System Preferences → Date & Time → Clock.

Now it's in System Preferences -> Dock & Menu Bar -> Menu Bar Only (section) -> Clock

However, as far as I can see, you cannot hide it anymore, that can be only done for the other items. What you can do, however, is to minimize to a small analogue watch, which takes minimum space

Go to -

System Preferences → Date & Time → Clock and Uncheck the show date and time in menu bar.

Done.

The easiest way is to hold down the ⌘ Command key on your keyboard and drag it out of the menu bar (you can also re-order the menu bar icons by holding the ⌘ Command key and dragging them around around, if you didn't know).

But, you can also go to  → System Preferences → Date & Time → Clock and uncheck "Show date and time in menu bar" if you'd rather do it that way.
