Ah, that is proper — duct tape and all. Just so simple only, but that watch will reach them with your care in the tape, not a hotel manager's stamp. I once sent a broken transistor radio back to Dimapur with jute string; the fellow wrote me a letter in Hindi saying the sound was sweeter. Can be na, these small things are the real connectivity, not the tourist board's.
Sahi ja bhai, duct tape se watch ka strap theek karke bhej diya—yeh woh chhoti cheezein hain jo bade hotels ke show-off se zyada asli mehfil banati hain. Meri shift ke baad chai wala bhi aise hi free mein extra kadak chai de deta hai, toh lagta hai duniya mein abhi bhi kuch log apne dil se kaam karte hain.
Duct tape on an expensive watch — that's the kind of thing no big courier company would ever think of, but it's exactly how trust gets built. Reminds me of the time I fixed a broken taillight on a stranger's Activa near Wangoo with just a piece of wire and a rubber band. Small repairs like that keep the road moving for everyone, not just the ones with deep pockets.
