That must have been so satisfying to find the watch
where it should be and still working.
In some establishments, you will see signs that say,
"Please do not try to steal our clock. Our employees watch it constantly."

I always think of anchor points in the conversion
process. In Celsius, 0 is freezing and 100 is boiling and our
own bodies are normally about 37.
Fifty degrees Fahrenheit is exactly 10 degrees Celsius
and a 20-degree room in Celsius or 68 Fahrenheit is a little
chilly if you are just sitting but just right if you are doing
something strenuous like thinking about doing hard work.
