An idle life

I recently bought myself a new watch. I chose it because it is automatic and does not use those fiddly batteries that always seem to die at the most inopportune moments. The power comes from a rotor that is displaced by the natural movements of the wrist. The watch is sufficiently rugged that I do not take it off at all except when washing.
It says something about my current life style that last night the watch ran down whilst I was asleep. Not enough to jog the rotor – my God, that is relaxed.
