Telling time

Ankit comes running to Papa with a digital watch in his hand.

Ankit: Papa, is this watch telling the right time?
Papa: You tell me Ankit. Go look at the time on the oven watch.
Ankit, walking to the oven: Hmm... it says 10:04. The watch says 9:50.
Papa: So? (hoping Ankit will say the watch is slow, or the watch is showing the wrong time).

Ankit: This watch is showing some other place's time.
Papa is surprised at Ankit's understanding of relationship between time and place.
