Frozen in Time

So I was riding the train last night after picking up a 16610 (my first sub), and saw this ad with the picture of a watch on it. Needless to say, I was moved by the story conveyed through the text, but then my WIS-self's gaze shifted toward the watch. The first thing that struck me was the tapestry dial, so I looked a little closer and saw the triangular marker on the bezel, as it was also engraved with numbers and engine-turned. I then walked up to the poster and looked for the logo, and if you look close enough, you'll see the coronet lurking beneath the shadow. I must've been the only person on the train who recognized this Turn-O-Graph.

The feeling this poster evoked is much like the Titanic or Pompeii - an artifact captured in times of tragedy, and something that we'll never forget.
