Jus' wondering?

Jus' wondering, at what point did the reference to "cleaning some one's clock" obtain it's popular meaning?
 
I can almost picture a dapper Victorian chap wearing a monocle and he is getting quite flustered at one of his acquaintances:
 
"Sir, if you do not immediately cease your current mannerisms, I will be forced to dust the insides of your mechanical time keeping device!"
 
Jus' wondering?
