I'm lost; what's the Tolkien connection with the watch?

It is the one he used when on secret missions to Germany during WW2. It was this watch that allowed him to single-handedly win the war, whilst still being back in time to catch up on marking his students' papers.

Now, now. No one would believe tosh like that.

Hoping to see the new Bond film next week, surely The Professor must get a mention, I have it on good authority that he was 'Q' in the 1940s :)

lol very good but I actually think you find Tolkien signed it inside and it was subsequently found inbetween pages of a book handed in to MI5 for security reasons
