Two framed collages displayed side by side, each containing a mix of images and text related to watches and timekeeping. The left frame includes a central image of a watch with accompanying text, overlaid by a light blue X. The right frame features various watch advertisements, a list of numbers, and a large photograph of a complex machine, with light blue scribbles and lines as decorative elements. Both pieces are mounted on beige backgrounds with black and white borders, and rulers along the edges of the frames.
