How to hang a wall clock on wall without nail?

Hi Community,

I need to hang a wall clock on my living room wall without nails as it is a rented property. I have been trying to use 3M Command Sticking Hooks with a weight rate of 2.2 kg however that has failed. I cannot use the Command strips as there is no place on the back of the clock where the strip can be placed so that it attaches to the wall. I am kinda confused. Will appreciate any help here. The weight of the clock is 2.2 kg

So the 3M's don't work? They're rated for 3.6kg and seem to have a little thing on it just for hanging things like a clock off of.

Ultimately when we rented we just used nails and made a note to repair the holes when we were leaving. A wall repair kit costs $13.89 and a sample pot of matched paint costs $5-ish? A lot easier than dealing with those adheasive strips that often do more damage being taken down than a nail ever would.
