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.
