Funny work story.
Never really had a thang for watches but, when I worked and was a crew leader my guys always asked me what time it was. And it was mostly because they wanted to know when the official break time was coming up, as not to get caught by the middle-management scum.
So I just bought a cheap Timex wind-up and took the band off and kept it in my pocket.
Then cell phones came in to my life. So I super-glued that Timex to the forward/reverse lever on the Cat loader that I used to operate. And it stayed there for a few more years.
In my shop I have a clock that has no numbers hanging next to a clock that runs backwards.
I've nestled into this retirement thang real good.
I hear you. My wife and I are into clocks - we're surrounded by them; hence no need to wear a watch. Cars have clocks in them too, blah, blah.
But I suspect there aren't in clocks in, near, or around the Great Pyramid, etc...
