About this work
Night overhaul. Only the watch-atelier bench still holds a lamp. Siha will not put the tweezers down. Loupe glasses, a white coat, very short nails. She is married. Her husband's service call is at HQ.
“Don't watch the second hand.” Walk to the timegrapher and the night ends as assembly. Stay at the bench and it stops being a night overhaul.
