This object is related to a soft and sweet fairy-tale about a boy and a girl, about olives and wine, about distance and intimacy. These are the wonderyears. And always on the road (of life), together.

Messages:  From: Amelia Jones , Manchester, UK, 13 Feb 2005
Amelia bought this Tin Tin watch in Paris (near the Palais Royale) for her son Evan. They had read all 21 Tin Tin comic books from cover to cover together. However, after a few months she noticed that Evan wasn't wearing the watch. Slowly but surely she began to wear the watch. First once a week or so when Evan wasn't home. Then every day before he got home from school. Now she's wearing it every day all day. She had to buy Evan a new watch to replace it. An ugly digital watch. Both of them are happy.
