If you go to the Amazon gallery for year 1958 and check the pics of ch# 10298 you'll see a much better view.
On the very early LHD cars the heater controls were on the left of the wheel. That gave more room for a clock. At this point they might have been standard. When the heater controls were moved to the centre, probably to make it a bit simpler for RHD/LHD, I think the clock was deleted. 1959 models came to the UK late in 1958 as RHD. Just about enough room to fit the clock at the far end of the dash but not easy for the driver to see. In 1965 they added the grab handle which took up that space.
