Remember, at the time, he's only 11, probably clutching the equivalent of an 
Instamatic and "A boy in my dorm said if I develop the film in the right 
potion, they'll move" (rough quote-- I'm too tired to go hunt up my CoS in 
the other room for pinpoint accuracy) my bet is starry-eyed Colin never 
conceived of developing his own pictures until someone mentioned it. I like 
the idea of craftsmanship- manual and mechanical items working, electronic 
ones not. So a Muggle self winding (where wrist motion winds the watch) fine 
Patek Phillippe or Rolex would work or a manual (wind each day by hand), but 
perhaps an automatic (battery, with memory chips would not.  In that case 
Harry would probably have to have a Gringott's watch; self winding Muggle 
watches aren't cheap.

Aylihael, who did a stint with Heritage Estate Buyers in the watch division a 
few years back while she was working through internship as a therapist.....
