a reliable watch

My Eco watch fell down somewhere in my room, and was missing almost two weeks.

Because it's powered by light, at home I keep it on a windowsill, or under a lamp after dark. Sometimes it falls down behind something and I have to dig down and get it; this time it was nowhere. So when I was cleaning, I had to empty out everything it could have fallen into but I wasn't finding it, and I was afraid it had gone into the waste basket and been thrown out.


It turned up, in a small tote with a pillow project inside. And when I got ready to adjust the time on a solar-powered watch which had been in the dark two weeks, I got a pleasant surprise - it was perfect!  Is this an ad for a Citizen eco-drive watch?  I guess so.

  1. A good friend recently got a Fossil Eco Watch and I love hers, I wondered about it's reliability though - this sort of proves it reliable. Lovely watch!

    1. I've had quite a few years, and only have to adjust the time maybe twice a year. But after being in the dark two weeks? That surprised me.

  2. I'm so glad you found it! (Did you ask St. Anthony for help?) So few people wear watches today, since they carry cell phones with them, but I do. I feel only half-dressed without my watch. : )

    1. You know, I haven't had much help from St. Anthony - but my guardian angel is VERY helpful to me in finding things!
