Problem with that is repeat custom. If you make sci-fi I could see myself buying a copy of each book. I don't see anyone buying more than one artisanal clock, unless they're doing a stage remake of Hook.

That's the kernel of a good sci-fi plot, but I'm having a hard time imagining a real core market for temporary time. (Which says almost nothing: I didn't predict the market for pet rocks and chia pets either.)

Ohhhhhh. I just got a reference made in the series (from 2011ish) where he uses nicotine patches and is wearing 3 (or 2?) because it is a three patch problem. I read some of the stories, not many, would like to read all at some point.

Heh yeah, that was a ref to the original. I recommend watching the Jeremy Brett tv show from the 80s/early 90s. They're almost better than the stories in some ways, same as David Suchet version of Poirot.

Or the candle with pins in it, whose dropping told young couples that their courtship time was over for the day. Okay, fair enough, there's a Renn Faire market if nothing else.
