I think even for this forum that's pretty weird. I'm sure the symptoms will dissipate once it's back on your wrist...

In the film, "Full Metal Jacket," remember when Private Leonard Lawrence, "Private Pyle," began having conversations with his M-14?

This does not bode well, if you can believe Hollywood.

Although "FMJ" is fiction, shortly before my arrival at MCRD, San Diego, in July 1967, a recruit on the firing-line turned around and put a bullet in his Drill Instructor, killing him, which forever changed the way ammunition was accounted for at the rifle range.

The association is tangential, I admit, but the OP hears his watch talking to him. I brought up the famous film scene when the actor began a discourse with his weapon, which was an indicator of his advancing mental instability, which culminated in the murder of his drill instructor and offered a real life example of such an incidence.

I think it is on topic, though a circumstantial, really rather than strictly tangential.
