Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Flip Clock at none against Clock Face's shown. Flip Clock also leads on review sentiment (93% vs 61%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). Clock Face's advantage is ratings volume (17K vs 56) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
