One of the many little known things about bears is that many of them are avid watch collectors. Curly hadn't been bitten by the watch bug until fairly recently. One day, while busy about town, it occurred to him that he hadn't checked to see whether he could purchase another box of champagne truffles prior to his meeting.

He thus made the spur of the moment decision to also purchase a watch. He saw a very pretty little model designed for the discerning bear. He has been very pleased with it and recommends it highly to other teddy bears in a similar situation.
