You can do this to get the clock back:
What you need is a DWORD value called ShowTitleBarClock that is set to 1. The value needs to be placed in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell. After adding the value and flushing the registry (usually the safest way to do that is to hit the power button to suspend the device, wait a few seconds, and then hit it again to wake it back up) reset the device.
To change the display of the clock in the taskbar:
The clock in the taskbar can be changed to show not only the time, but also the date, or just the date, or nothing at all.
To show nothing:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 0 (DWORD decimal)
To show just the clock:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 1 (DWORD decimal)
To show just the date:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 2 (DWORD decimal)
To show both the date and the clock:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\TBOpt = 3 (DWORD decimal)
If something (like a close button) overlaps with your date, you can change the short date format to add a few (1 should be enough) spaces at the end:
HKLM\nls\overrides\SSDte = "FORMAT " (REG_SZ string, no quotes)
For more information on date/time formatting strings, see:

All applications using the short date format will be affected by this change.
A soft reset is needed after each registry change.
I did all this and it worked on my Axim x51v with A12.
Hope it helps.
