This person is studying Japanese WWII air plane's cockpit panel.
He's selling the research result as 3D-CG.
When informing what to use that and paying money, maybe you can get high-resolution material. 　Probably.

Very exciting news. Thanks for your effort Sita, you're really doing a wonderful job. I hope we'll be able to drop paratroopers and supplies in the near future.

Indeed, that is soooo great!
And the dropping feature would be good!

That might make sense. One clock is set to Zulu time, the other is set to local.

Or, one is set to local time and the other is a stopwatch or "time of flight" counter. That would be handy for dead-reckoning navigation if there isn't a dedicated navigator station.

FWIW, here's an interesting site for aircraft clocks. You'll notice that some of the WW2 era gauges have inset time of flight counters.

That is a good website, please pay a visit if you like watches like me!

For me 2 clocks sounds logic, one for the pilot, the other for the copilot

I can write more many ones by guess. But some of characters doesn't match my expectation for those.
When there are no high resolution pictures, it's more difficult any more.
