Extraterrestrial Timekeeping

My Boss just came back from an India work trip (one which I managed to get out of!) and she showed me a watch she purchased from a mall in Bangalore.

She said she bought it only because the shopkeeper told her that it is the "slimmest watch in the universe".

Frou: In the universe?
Boss: Exactly. I asked the shopkeeper whether he meant "the world" instead. He said, "No madam, slimmest in the universe".
Frou: Does he think there are watches in Mars?
Boss: That's exactly what I asked!
Frou: And what did he say??
Boss: He said he doesn't know but even if there are, his watches will still be the slimmest.

Can't argue with that... !!
