A Timepiece
I got my first timepiece during my recognition day after finishing 2nd Grade as the 1st Honor of the class. It was a black Benetton watch with colorful numbers on it. It was given by my Manoy Brandit. It was very special. I could not remember what happened to it though.
When I grew older, I continue to fancy watches but could not afford it. I was able to own a Timex watch because someone pawned it to me for a small amount of cash. It was a big deal for me. I thought that the brand is one of the most expensive watches. It was not until I got here that I realized, there are watches that are even 10x more expensive than that. There’s Movado and Torgoen watches to name a few.
Timepieces are ideally used to tell time. But now it has beecome a piece of jewelry. Many craftsmen express their talents in making elegant and attractive concepts of watches. What is your favorite timepiece?
I would love to have a “tag huer” but it’s too expensive, so for now I settle with my DKNY and Fossil. I really think watches it’s just a piece of jewellery nowadays, if I need to know what the current time I often just reach out wih my mobile phone as I keep forgetting to wear watch eveyr now and then.

I used to collect watches but I got tired of it and buried them in a box.
You should ask somebody in the family to start questing for your black Benetton. Your mom might know where the watch is hiding

i’m pretty sure my Nanay doesn’t have any idea bout that old watch i got. she’s not the type that stashes our things in safety. she taught us responsibility in all our belongings and not depend on someone to take care of it.
