Partial view of a watchband, showing the watch face and stitching at the edges of the band. A small label above the circular watch face reads "766." The face itself, seen at an angle to show depth, bears five equally spaced control knobs on the frame at right. Contained inside the face is a heart with blood vessels extending to the edges. A thorny vine is wrapped around the heart. Some of the thorns pierce the heart, and each draw a drop of blood. Watermark of "Storyfeather" along left edge of watchband at top.
