One Fob Watch that is well know to all Doctor Who fans is the Fob Watch that, when used with a Chameleon Arch, will turn a Time Lord into a different species. There have been three notable uses of the Fob Watch, (Human Nature/ Family of Blood and Utopia), however Human Nature and Family of Blood were a two part epidode, and Utopia was the start of a thre part episode. It is suggested that the process of removing the Time Lord essence is extremely painful, as each and every cell must be re-written into the chosen species, usually human.
