I guess you mean a Thunderbolt-equipped one? The only one I am aware of is this one from Linus' video, although I'm sure there are other options:
 

 

Make sure to tag and/or quote people so they get notified... :P:D 

 

My gear:

                                                         Ryzen 7 2700X / Gigabyte GA-X370M-Gaming 3 / R9 380 Nitro 4GB/ 16GB DDR4 2133 / 225GB OCZ Trion 100 / 3TB of hard drive storage
                                                                                                     AOC C24G1 / BenQ GW2270H(rarely overclocked to 87Hz :P )
                                                                               Razer Blackwidow / Redragon Kumara / Logitech G Pro Wiress / Sennheiser HD 559

Get any display with a DisplayPort connectivity and use a USB-C to DisplayPort cable. DisplayPort is supported natively over USB-C.

On another note - what display do you want or need? What features? What usage? Color profile? Ultrawide - yes/no? Refresh rate? Resolution?

Doesn't work if your monitor also needs USB connectivity for the built in hub. There's quite a few monitors that do the hub+display over Type-C like LG's 38WK95C. There are a lot of other monitors, that's just the first one that came to mind.
