Deeply affecting ku, pierced my heart...it has been 5 years, but I don't have the courage to change the cell of my father's watch.

Agree, heartbreaking.


I had a somewhat similar experience with the watch of my great grandfather. I never met him but when I wound the watch it did feel like a tiny, comforting heartbeat.
