“He visits every checkpoint and clicks each unique key into the watchclock.”
“The key, literally, to the watchclock system is that the watchman is required to "clock in" at a series of perhaps a dozen or more checkpoints throughout the premises.”

vanishedone Graphpaper.com: 'An elegant solution, designed and patented in 1901 by the German engineer A.A. Newman, is called the “watchclock�?. It’s an ingenious mechanical device, slung over the shoulder like a canteen and powered by a simple wind-up spring mechanism. It precisely tracks and records a night watchman’s position in both space and time for the duration of every evening. It also generates a detailed, permanent, and verifiable record of each night’s patrol.' May 5, 2009
