I find your lack of faith disturbing…

If you ask Darth Vader what time it is, he always says, “Two seconds till.”
After you ask, “Two seconds till what?” He lightsabers you in half.

why am I seeing Sid Little looking at this??

He can tell the time without a watch anyway, just uses the force.

If it can get an x-wing out of a swamp then there's no question that it can tell you when it's twenty past four.

How do people know it's a Rolex? - because they see the Rolex 'crown' on the dial, and on the bracelet clasp.

As to its worth, well I have had it valued, but that's something between me and my insurance company. But then it's not all about money; there are unquantifiable aspects to any possession or gift.

In order -

I don't regard my sub or explorer as 'showy'.

No.

As it's only 34mm across they'd have to be about 6 inches from your wrist to make out these details.

We were discussing value vis-a-vis the watch being stolen so that's of no relevance.

Ok, clue: It was a gift from Captain Koon to Butch...

You would have to have pretty poor eyesight not to be able see the crown motif. I wonder how others have done it?

Agree sentimental value is one thing, but I was talking about its value for insurance purposes. Since I wear it all the time, both in this country and in 'parts foreign', and is a valuable item, it has to itemised separately on my insurance policy.

What is the figurine supposed to be - and are those 'lumps' at the front meant to be breasts? I can't make out the name of the watch. Is it "Lancey"?

The watch is called the "Lancet Trench". I've also seen it called "the ass watch"

I think those 'lumps' are meant to be arms. A better picture of the figurine:
