ABSTRACT:
An enhanced case, strap or bracelet worn upon the wrist contains in separate cavities (i) a watch, calculator, telephone, radio or like device that, among other functions, keeps time, plus (ii) a writing, probing and/or pointing instrument. The case preferably houses a watch in its first cavity. Both (i) a double-ended instrument having a pen suitable for writing on one end, and a probe suitable for activating push button switches on the other end, and (ii) an electrical switch, are preferably housed in a second cavity having the shape of an elongate bore. Extraction or insertion of the instrument from the bore is sensed by the switch, and is electrically communicated to the watch to initiate a countdown timer. The interval of the countdown timer is preferably variably preset. A wearer/user of the enhanced case will, after the expiration of a preset time interval from any withdrawal of the instrument, be alerted by an alarm to return the instrument to its cavity within the housing, thereby aiding in preventing loss of the instrument.
