Previous Changes
- In the first part of the patch, the Enthusiast's Timepiece was marked as craftable and could be found via the item drop system. The second patch on this day, however, removed these attributes and all items obtained these ways were then marked as untradeable.
Trivia
- When Tycho first shows the watch to Gabe, the co-star of the Penny Arcade webcomic, Gabe kills Tycho to obtain it. The watch has since changed hands repeatedly, through the characters murdering each other. [1][2]
- The Cloak meter emulates the Pac-man derived logo commonly seen worn on Tycho's friend Gabe's shirt[3] as well as a tattoo on his arm.[4]
- In the Poker Night Launch Trailer, the watch is covered in blood, however there is no blood on it in-game.
- This item is not tradable as it's an achievement related item, much like some of the Halloween hats and achievement weapons.
