The bank building was expanded in 1926, and the clock was on the corner at that time. Photos taken at various times through history can be found [here] and [here]. The clock was not on the building in 2004 when XTO Energy bought it. According to an article in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram [link], they acquired the clock through a charitable donation and mounted it back on the building where it stands today.
