A new DEW DROP thought

Here's a thought about Dumbledore's watch, but there isn't much canon to 
support it.

So far, Dumbledore's watch is the only WW time-piece we've seen in the first 
four books to have planetary elements.  Other clocks talk to people or 
indicate what someone might be up to, but none have tiny planets moving 
about on them.

Due to the planetary elements that we have not seen on any other wizarding 
timepiece, I wonder if Dumbledore's watch is a centaur creation.

Centaurs are great astronomers as witnessed by the conversations with them 
in PS/SS. To quote an email from Melody after I first shot this idea past 
her, she wrote:

>The centaurs have to be doing something in that forest besides looking
>up, and I am sure Dumbledore has visited them.


Once I stopped giggling about centaurs standing motionless all night like 
huge, hairy sunflowers (moonflowers?), I read the rest of her note. Melody 
went on to say:

>They seem friendly enough.  I see a little workshop with Frienze and
>Bane working to get the gears just right.


They do have opposable thumbs, after all.

PS. Melody-- Glad you like your FRIENDSGOINGNUTS tail-coat!! It is a bangy 
theory asserted in your last TBAY. It could be, really!!
