Generally agree although I think the term "jewelry" understates a watch's significance and I think limiting it to "for some" is incorrect. I think most people are smart to own a watch for the simple reason that it's a social norm to wear a watch when you're even moderately dressed up. That puts a watch in a different category than, say, a portable radio which has zero social significance. For whatever reason watches have gotten sucked into the conventionally agreed upon dress code, and those conventions do not change easily and are not just optional for most people.

Since this is a hypothetical exercise, could it be possible that Jesus would carry a pocket watch if it existed? Something a bit old fashioned, in keeping with His status of being the Ancient of Days?
