Another version, based on a much older commercial, would have the watch withstanding all manner of punishment prior to the excecution, but finally exploding during it.

Camera pans to control room, showing operator throwing switches for about 20 seconds. Camera pans back to Tookie and zooms to left wrist, showing Timex watch still keeping accurate time.
