Why?

Because nothing seems 'wierd' in a dream. Think about it - if flying pink bananas were buzzing around, you'd think it was perfectly normal in a dream.
It's because the dreamer did not program his/her mind to do a reality check whenever flying pink bananas were buzzing around..... Same thing with the watch...I could have easily dismissed the watch's time changing as it being faulty and carry on with the dream but I recognize it because it's been programmed as a sign that I'm dreaming.
