This painting features a pocket watch with a white face and black hands, surrounded by a black border. The watch is attached to a chain with a circular clasp, and a red and green oval-shaped object is visible behind it. The background of the painting is a light beige color, with some Japanese writing in black ink.

The use of color and composition creates a sense of balance and harmony in the painting.
