The face itself was large and plain save for the words ‘Kodiak,’ and ‘Water resistant quartz,’ and in tiny lettering at the bottom, ‘Japan Movt.’ The Japanese knew about movement and the piece kept good time. It looked like an engineers’ watch or a train conductor’s watch. It was another type of time that he thought of at 1:11. Angel time. Manifestation time. These numbers, the 1’s, were significant.

And still much more than these. He could only hope that Indian time would somehow ease the hardened hearts of the world.
