Klepsydra

~
Klepsydra: Water Thief*, A slope in Greece, a water clock for timing speeches.

*"Klepsydra really does mean water thief. It's from the Greek words kleptes and hydro, kleptes meaning steal (Kleptomania, Kleptocracy?) and hydra meaning water (Hydrophobia, Hydraulics?)".

As far as I know, a wristwatch version of a klepsydra has never been attempted.
