The gold pocket watch symbolizes Yusuf and Yiorgos’ love. A birthday gift from Yusuf to Yiorgos, the watch has their initials engraved on it, along with the lines of a romantic poem. Despite falling into the well along with its owner, the watch remains unscathed, echoing how the legacy of Yusuf and Yiorgos’ love endures long past their deaths.
