The Pocketwatch is an old-fashioned watch carried in a pocket rather than worn. It belongs to the Memento class, but it still keeps good time.
While it sits in the main inventory, the clock shows on the screen. That gives the same time readout as a digital or classic wrist watch. It also has an alarm that can wake a sleeping survivor. The catch is noise, since the alarm can draw nearby zombies.
Pocketwatches turn up in Wild West themed buildings, jewellery stores, department stores and pawn shops.
Using
The watch is held in the main inventory rather than worn on a wrist. It fits on a Key Ring, which keeps it tidy alongside keys.
Right-clicking it gives the Set Alarm option. The alarm can be set for a chosen time and switched on or off. When it rings it wakes the sleeper. The sound carries a few tiles, enough to pull zombies close by toward the watch.
The watch contains a little metal. As a find it is a solid pick for a survivor with no other watch. It also makes a fine keepsake for a collection.
Locations
Shelves in the Wild West themed buildings are the best bet, holding one about three times in ten. The bedroom, hall and sheriff's office there all have them. Department store display cases come next. Cigar box keepsakes, pawn shop display cases and jewellery stores hold them now and then. Plank stashes, clothing, electronics and gift store display cases turn them up at a lower rate. Evacuee zombies, attics and closet lockers hold one only rarely.

Notes

- A Key Ring can hold the Pocketwatch.
- The clock only shows while the watch sits in the main inventory.
- The Wild West themed buildings are the richest place to find one.
