I'm not sure either, because I'm not sure what you mean by
"synchronized". But if you want a timer to run at 11:01:00, 11:02:00,
11:03:00, then timer.el has support for that (and calls that "integer
multiple").

Running several timers is fine. And I don't think there's any code
repetition? Just say
(run-at-time t 60 (lambda () (message (format-time-string "%H:%M:%S"))))
or whatever you want.
