Patriarch and watch
Patriarch Cyril with a clock
Let me, Orthodox, have a few words about the watch. I can’t wear everything about my own, the bishop monk on the hand cannot. The fact is that his right hand is working, if you like, he blesses her. And on his left he has rosary. It will be strange to be there at least a clock. This was understood the predecessor of Patriarch Kirill - Patriarch Alexy I. 
Patriarch Alexy I without hours
In the memoirs of Metropolitan Pitirim (Nechaev) there is such an excerpt about the clock:
"The Patriarch himself was extremely accurate. He wore them on a chain - he believed that the bishop was indecent to wear a clock on his hand. If he saw this at the bishop, he said:" His Grace, do you wear a watch on his hand? " And as a sign of a special location, the clock on the chain could get it from the box and give it, please, so that you have no more on your hand! ”
