Recenty Peter had his dad's fob watch serviced in order to bring it back to life. Max had purchased it in Switzerland when he and Val travelled through Europe in the late 70's so it is not rally an antique... yet. But that means that there is plenty of live in the old dear... plenty of ticks. Peter faithfully winds it up each night. It holds very accurate time. Keeping it ticking helps Peter, in some mysterious way, keep something of his dad continually alive. He likes that.
