69

I decided to put my watch back on. Then while running through the park I looked at my watch, admiring the legibility of its magnified proportions and noticed that it was the same style as the giant clock atop a pole that I was running past at that moment. Now I know why MUJI named it the “Park Watch.” I place a high value on knowing the correct time here, although I am uncertain why, as I have no particular daily routine. Watch = precise time for no reason. No watch = imprecise operation of ambiguous schedule with the possibility of intermittent human contact to ask for the correct time. Watch on, off, off, or on – different choices, each with their own particular clutter.
