Pocket Watch

A delicate time piece with a metallic casing, and a small glass window that protects and displays the clock within. It is operated by finely crafted metal gears that control the dials on the face of the watch, moving each "hand" according to hours, minutes and seconds. In order for the watch to keep accurate time, it must be wound every day. The watch itself can be made of a variety of metals, but copper, silver and gold are commonly chosen, a pocket watch serving as a display of wealth just as much as for telling time.
