A Note on Watches

part 1 / part 2 / part 3

was watching Conclave with my friend and being a watch nerd, he notes:

Lawrence

Lawrence was wearing something like an Orient Bambino (possibly passed down). Watches like that are from the eighties.

Clearly, it's not embellished, and worn over time. A used Orient Bambino exudes decorum without being flashy. Pragmatic and cultured.

__________________________________________________

Bellini

Bellini's watch was quite simple as well.

Potentially an Omega De Ville or more likely a classic Seiko Dolce. Also an old model, implying that he's worn it for some time.

(Apparently, the Omega De Ville doesn't have the same angles) Regardless, people who opt for tank faces (square watches) tend to be ambitious. Simultaneously, they want to project humility.

'He's been doing all the right things to get what he wants,' says my friend. 'He's been curating his image.'

Benitez

Benitez's Casio f-91w is a functional watch.

'It exists just to do its job,' says my friend (Nate). 'No fanfare. It tells time and like [Benitez's] character, it's not trying to show up anybody. It just does its job.'

Considering this Casio costs 12 TIMES less than Bellini's Seiko Dolce, you might think this is a humble watch.

But it's not even that. It's an 'I exist' watch.

Additional note: Some people have said Benitez is wearing a Casio F-105, but my friend disagrees. Benitez’s watch face is too large (sorry for the typo) SMALL to be the F-105. Regardless, both the Casio models tell us the same thing about Benitez's character.

Additional note 2: Casio f-91w is apparently considered a god-tier watch, which is above luxury watches. It's earned that ranking because:

It's battery lasts for 10 years

It keeps time accurately

It has alarm & date function (both 12h or 24h)

It has a backlight

Water resistance for up to 30m

It can stand a tough beating.

It's versatile. You can wear it with a suit or overalls. Anything.

It's cheap, i.e. easily accessible. Just like God.

It has an annual sales of 3 mil units per year, making it the most sold watch in the world.

Side note: The current Pope (Francis) wears a Casio MQ-24-7bldf, which has similar connotations as Benitez's. The only difference being that Pope Francis's Casio is analogue while Benitez's watch is digital, showing the role age plays in preference. Both watches are hella cheap, but Benitez's watch is a tad more expensive by virtue of being digital and having more features like an alarm and backlight function, which better fits his situation in Kabul.

Seiko with a ghost MS/O that died earlier (through accident or other means) in life but refuses to leave seiko no matter how much hes exercised and hes just lingers like a stand from jojo or like Rika

Seiko with a ghost s/o

You were seiko's husband, well technically still are but it's hard to explain to anyone who isn't involved with the occult that she's married to a ghost so officially she's a widow but in reality she has a ghost husband

You died fighting a yokai which was trying to attack seiko, you defended her but lost your life in the process, seiko was so distraught by your loss she didn't even try any way to communicate with your spirit or see you for one last time, she felt like that would depress her even more, so for a while she tried to cope with the fact that you were gone

Only for her to literally almost have an heart attack when you showed up next to her and started talking to her like it was normal

At first she thought you were some evil yokai trying to trick her and immediately tried to exorcise you only for it not to work, she tried again and again but this was the first time she had seen a spirit be so resilient and resist so many attempts to exorcise it

"Why don't you just disappear and leave me alone!? Y/n is gone so stop copying him just to trick me!"

"No, seiko, it is actually me. i'm still here because....i love you and I want to stay with you forever"

And so she eventually actually understood that the ghost was you and that you were back from the dead, in a way, to be with her, it definitely stunned her at first and it took a while to get used to but it was comforting in a way knowing that she still had you

Your life together actually mostly didn't change that much, because of seiko's great affinity for ghosts and spirits she has no problem communicating with you and even touching you most of the time, so you can do most of the things you did before your death and your private life is pretty much unchanged

It's in public that she has to be careful, most of the time you go with her wherever she has to go and so sometimes she starts talking to you and everyone looks at her weird because to them she's just talking to no one, or she'll say "hold up let me talk to my husband" and turn to you and then you have to remind her that you're supposed to be dead

If seiko's reaction was extreme then you haven't seen momo's yet. When she started gaining more of a grasp on her powers she realized she could see you, a ghost of her dead grandfather...she almost fainted at the realization and went to ask seiko to exorcise you, so you had to explain the situation

"W-wait so you're telling me that grandpa isn't actually dead?"

"No, I did die, I just came back as a spirit"

"Oh so that's why I can see you only now cause of my powers"

"Yeah"

".....well i'm happy about that, i'm glad i can see you again grandpa"

"Me too momo, I remember how distraught you were when you heard i died"

"Yep, she cried like a little girl and locked herself in her room for 2 weeks....although i'm pretty sure by the second week it was just an excuse to not go to school"

"G-grandma! Don't say that!"

"Eheh don't worry momo, it's fine, i'm just happy we can be a family again"

"...yeah the same goes for me, I guess having a ghost husband is fitting for a psychic"

"True"
