All right then, is it the hour hand of your $0.99 Chinese all plastic copy of a men's Movado watch?

Nope. (Odd but amusing guess, though. :) )

I was an only child, and I really don't understand play. I'm NOT trying to inhibit you from playing your whatzit game. It's just that the early photos in most whatzit inquiries are boring to the point of being off-putting, to me.

Then simply roll on by, Roy. Don't waste your valuable time on playing with us in our sandboxland of the Whatzit?s. Be happy and well.

P.S. I was an only-child, too, but that's almost all I ever wanted to do was play with every other kid in da 'hood. I knew every one of them, regardless of age. In fact, my dearest friend, Robert, who lived right next door, was given the prerogative to step into our kitchen when he needed a cold drink and remove one from the refrigerator. A neighbor behind us, Charles, possessed of a huge in-ground pool in his backyard, had an actual soda-pop (as we called them back then in the Pittsburgh area) vending machine in his garage, always operating, from which we friends and playmates of his had a standing-welcome to take a soda from its cool confines any time we need a "cold one." Neighbors. Neighbors enjoying neighbors. That's why I enjoy playing here so often. Nice web-neighbors and nice web-playfulness.

P.P.S. Robert became a judge, and Charles, practicing to become an Olympic swimmer, died in a crash of his new Corvette against a bridge abutment at the edge of town along the Monongahela River. I am so very glad for those friendships , this only-child, and that I let myself enjoy them, while I had them so close to me.

Additional hint: No hard parts to the Whatzit? whatsoever. Hah-evah….your use of the word "eye" :shock: could be interpreted to have something to do with that Whatzit?

Murph, if you don't mind, I'll keep on doing as I have, and chime in as I start to recognize things.

That would be very nice and very welcome, of course, Roy.
So, on that positive note, let me post this further clue about my latest Whatzit?entry...

Since it's not metal, I know it can't be, but it looks like a car door handle.

I also thought comet.

Those latest (and all the others) conclusions are remarkable. However, they are nowhere (!!!!!!!!!!!) near the Whatzit? You guys are going to fall over - literally, fall from your chairs - when I finally disclose what we are seeing there. Yup. Fall over. :D

Here's a frontal view of the same type of object (getting ready to fall-over [?] because I know you'll all get it now)...

Looks like Muppet lips, but then again, you could make it smaller since I can almost see it, :?

I see a box, @ 1X 3/4 inches, filled with a dark color.
I don't get it. :(

Is it a Burqa? Someone wearing a burqa (sometimes spelled, "burka"] where only the eyes are visible?
