Revealing mistake: When Indy is in the archive room cornered by the thugs, there are a couple of wide shots where it's definitely not Harrison Ford, but a stuntman with a mask resembling his face. The wide shots cut to close-ups of the real Harrison, and one can see the big difference between both. According to the making-of videos, several stunts were played using this technique.

Answer: I remember that Archimedes gave Indy the dial, but he kept the wristwatch.
