HOROLOGY (noun)
Clock-making; (study of) measurement of time.
From the Greek hora time.

I love clocks and watches especially those that tick.

This watch was my dads`. After he died 4 years ago, Mum asked me if I would like to have it....I jumped at the offer. When I used to work for a jewellers, I used to take it in to be cleaned and overhauled for him and I bought him the bracelet that`s on it now so that`s 29 years old.
I wear it occasionally, it fits perfectly and the odd thing is that when it stops (it`s a wind up model) it`s always on or near the time he died...3.30
