Default USS New York Clock Question??

Heres a picture of Howard in front of the USS New York and off to the side the USS Ranger. I have always been curious about the clock on the tower. I have downloaded pictures of the USS New York off the internet and all the pics I have seen, the clock seems to read 12:00.

I'm curious if there was a reason behind this. Was all ships done this way back then, or was the clock just broke.

I did find a later picture of it after some modifications were added to the ship and I noticed the clock was gone. So, I wonder if they just never got it working.
