But that's because Dave primarily used Writs of Delay, 
indicating he'd just be a day or two in getting clock-stopping 
tasks completed.  Never really liked writs of delay...I felt 
Dave should just take as long as he needed to, and if it was 
gonna be more than a day or two the Watch would add 
perspective.

But if all it does is add perspective, perhaps it would be 
easier if the wiki showed the timestamp for when the Clock was 
stopped...?  After all, the Watch must necessarily be 
realtime, unless one wants to be able to turn it off as well.
