This, of course, begs the question.....what IS that watch he's using?

Booooo.

Good one Peter! I see no chain. Wonder how many times it slipped out of his hands and fell to the floor wearing those white cotton gloves

not real watch it was prop for picture only.

That's cynical, Peter, and not true. Either Andy or Jon or Tom D. sold him that timepiece.

Are we sure it's a watch?? Maybe he's watching reruns of "as the world turns" on his I-phone!

looks like a compass to me

Mebbe a 992B his daddy picked up in a POW camp.

ouch!
