Excerpt from Dr. Süurd's presentation to the Academy of Undifferentiable Constants, Vestibriüm University (Gnuundärd), 22 December...

Understand that I'm under no illusion of time being some sort of constant, eternally ticking away while our universe flashes in and out of existence. No... Time is anything but ubiquitous, and is thus quite finite, contained neatly amid 10⁷⁷ nucleons or so.

(The uninitiated will note time's dependence on matter.)

And because this amorphous continuum defies the very concept of order, we must concede that although time has not always been, it has no beginning; and although time will not always be, it has no end. Instead, time's apparent "passage" is utter fallacy, indicative of our limited grasp of the phenomenon.

At any rate, given a universe aged, as we say, 13.5 to 13.9 billion years (with its expansion curiously accelerating), I imagine the relative scope to be sufficiently vast for illustrative purposes, even to the audience seated.

Now, my fundamental contention is that everything... Everything that could be said to "transpire..." It's all simultaneous, if you will. Measurable or otherwise, every event in our universe coincided with the Hindenburg disaster of 1937.

Unfortunately, being comprised of matter ourselves, we exist within that same instant (or more precisely, that same instance), making the requisite perspective a distinctively singular commodity. Nonetheless, I assure you my results are accurate.

And it's this discovery that facilitated last week's indubitable unification of science and religion, effectively nullifying the hitherto perplexing quandaries that have tormented humanity since the inception of our dubious intellect. In recognition of my colossal achievement, the Committee has authorized a special medallion, along with a cash prize of nearly $500 (US), which I shall be accepting in Geneva sometime next month.

Now, back to the gentleman's question: The watch runs on a CR2032 lithium coin-cell battery.
