The watch that survived the Khmer Rouge

My dad's Rolex, mentioned in Chapter 2, 5 and 17, is still working great after 40 years. A piece of machine and history.

If it could talk, it probably would say thank you Dr. Chhunly and more than a miliion times for saving me all along. I have no idea how you did it, but you did it. You are brilliant! I only hope and pray that you'll continue to keep me safely. You'll never know. My future can be in the hand of your next and countless generations or someone with a rightful mind will certainly put me in the National Museum where I truely belong. Please wish me luck!

A timeless Rolex watch,
