The reeding is identical from the point of view of the reverse; upsets at different angles have the interruptions in the reeding at different places on the obverse. This tells us that just one die pair produced all the upsets and that the obverse die was the one that rotated.
Last year I listed two clockfaces on thievesbay; the first sold, the second didn't - I then submitted it to Australian Coin Auctions where it did sell.
Building a set is a much more difficult task than you may think as some angles are very difficult to find, in particular it is very rare to find an upset right on 11 o'clock (although 11:20 is more common so you may have to settle for that). Good luck.
