Clocks Like Horses

From what I gather, this is a story of a man who used to be obsessed with watches. He still enjoys the watches he's inheireted, but not as much as previously. He takes one of the nice ones and carries it around with him one day. While at a restaraunt, his waiter asks him the time. He pulls out the watch, knowing that it didn't work, and before he told the waiter that it wasn't in proper working order, the waiter had taken it into his hands and was examining it. He told him of a man in the Fao region that would be the only one who could fix a watch like this. The man takes the watch there where he finds a man with many many clocks in his house all set to different times. Upon seeing his watch, the man wants to fix it and whilst doing so, he tells stories of his past life as a sailor who traded horses.
