The York Pennsylvania National Watch & Clock Museum is thinking big, readying an exhibit of presidential time pieces.
The topic has exploded in recent years, from interest in Bill Clinton’s 
Ironman, to George Bush’s watch theft 
[or not] 
in Albania, to…well that about does it.
The Museum starts off with four items: a pocket-watch and clock from James Monroe, a Gerald Ford clock, and for the young people, Julie Nixon Eisenhower’s wristwatch.
How to fill the gaps? Relying on the people!
” the museum is looking for people in the region who might have presidential clocks and watches that they’d loan to the cause.”
Who’ll Watch the Watches?
