One of my all time favorite Collectors’ Workshop effects and back on the shelves after a long absence. The new watch is slightly smaller than the original and can be seen in the final photo, but that makes it easier to handle. Still looks beautiful. A great item. The transformation of a watch that “needs assembly” to a fully functioning watch seemingly right under their eyes is a joy to behold!
Effect: A very special effect for closeup and table workers. Performer exhibits a see-thru glass pocket watch containing random gears and parts. “What a deal!” he exclaims, “I got it cheap but it came with a little slip — “Some Assembly Required.”
So saying, the performer wraps the watch in a velvet-like drape, keeping the curved bow in view and attaching a chain. The watch is then handed to a spectator. With a few carefully chosen incantations, the drape is removed. The watch, and all its components, has been fully assembled and is functioning perfectly.

I have always been fascinated between either the beauty of the watch itself and or the trick. I had been on the fence about purchasing this for a number of years because, it was either a magician’s best kept secret or it was something they didn’t want to let go of. You cannot find many reviews really of it, unless it is on this website from Andy himself.
I wrote to George Robinson of Collector’s Workshop as soon as I received mine, Such a beautiful piece of work and trick, thereby in itself. Just amazing! I would go so far as to say, if you can get one, get it. The working watch is fully functional and beautiful at the same time. The trick and performance is easier to pull off than you might think. I did it for some friends at work and they thought it was absolutely amazing!
Highly recommended.
