We live by seconds. By rhythm. By trust in the idea that the world moves forward evenly — tick after tick, one beat at a time.

But what if someone found the flaw in that rhythm?

What if one second didn’t belong to us at all — and every clock was lying?

In 1961, a watchmaker in upstate New York tried to prove that time itself was repeating.

He built a machine to capture that hidden moment — a sliver of existence looping endlessly.

Instead, it killed him.

When police arrived, they found hundreds of clocks stopped in unison — their hands pointing to the same number.

2:19 a.m.

And no one’s been able to explain what happened in that single missing minute since.

This is the story of The Watchmaker’s Error.
