Yeah... I've got a Wesclox Dax, another "dollar" watch... stupid thing sounds like an idling diesel.
occasionally I leave one of my older 18s monsters on my dresser with the front doors open so it can act as a sound box. If you make sure the watch is right on the wood of the top it fills the whole room with noise.... pretty much guarantees a slap in the head from the loved one. I find the older slow train Illinois best for this stunt!
I have a display case in the living room with 15 railroad pieces hanging in it. (A custom made gift from said loved one, she is soooo tolerant!)
Its fun to wind them all and watch them swing from their hooks as they run. Sounds like a big box of crickets!
