Err... which watch "at the beginning of PS/SS"?

On the contrary, "Harry lay in his dark cupboard much later, wishing he had 
a watch." (UK ed., p. 27 - last page of chapter 2).

However, Dudley did get a gold watch for his birthday, so there's certainly 
room for speculation that Harry "inherited" an older one from him.
