Swiss Watch Restorer Has an Understanding Wife
EVERY Sunday morning as the clock strikes eight, Jayanta Sardar of Hatibagan, north Kolkata, comes down to his living room, takes out the 100 odd clocks and watches he owns and spreads them out in front of him. He dusts them, winds them, caresses them tenderly, lovingly for hours on end.
…companies whose products adorn his living room include Omega, Courvoisier, Ben Nevis — all celebrated Swiss clock manufacturers — and Rotherhams of England.
‘‘Clocks are the “elixir of life for him,’’ says wife Ratna, who extends unflinching support to her husband in his unique and fascinating pursuit.
Anyone else just a little jealous?
