A Chicago Police detective works homicide on the South Side, and the watch that rides along is a blue Movado Museum. It was a gift from his father the year he graduated the academy at twenty-one, a decade ago, and it is the veteran of a collection that has grown up around it. He keeps coming back to it anyway. The crystal is scuffed and the bracelet is worn, and he would not have it any other way, he calls the marks battle scars that tell stories. The last two frames are him at work, pulled from news footage of scenes he caught. A dress watch is an unusual thing to wear to a homicide, until you know it was the first watch that ever meant something.
