The answers to today's Strands, game #280, are FACE HANDS BEZEL CROWN LUXURY 
DIGITAL ANALOG SPANGRAM: WATCHWORDS My rating: Easy My score: 1 hint 

Todays theme was WATCHWORDS and it got me thinking about how much I love my 
Apple Watch and its many uses, but also a little nostalgic for my old ANALOG 
timepieces of yesteryear, who had just one job  to tell me the time. Ah, 
simple, distant days, memory wastes, memory wastes 

In case you think Im losing my mind, those words are from one of my favorite 
songs  Cattle and Cane by The Go-Betweens. It includes the evocative line his 
fathers watch  he left it in the shower. Its about memory, being young and 
naive and doing thoughtless things like losing a precious belonging in the 
school bathrooms after gym class. It was released in 1983, but Im sure anyone 
listening to it in 2024 would still think the watch in question was some 
beautiful Omega Seamaster or Rolex Oyster rather than erm a Samsung Galaxy 
Watch Ultra . I mean you would be sad if you lost that, but you could also 
wear it in the shower, so its unlikely youd leave it behind.
