Very cute!
Some guy named William Paley said finding a watch was proof that a watchmaker exists (or at least a watchmaking machine in China, in which case there would have to be a watchmaking machine maker...)
Wouldn't that be great to have "help, I'm trapped in a watch-making factory" scroll across your casio digital watch?

When we were growing up in Utah the license plates were made at the state prison. A story went around of a person who received his plates with a note in between them which read "Help, I'm being held against my will!"

Useless trivia - iPhones are made by Foxconn. Every technician bench at Foxconn has a Tektronix Scope on it. To my knowledge, nobody has been trapped in a Tektronix Scope.
