The human mind is unnatral?  That's news to me.  I mean, here I was always thinking we developed these large brains via a very natural process: evolution.  Not to mention, these wonderful hands and fingers that allow us to manipulate tools, which, in turn, let us build great machines, those are also products of evolution.

How about: the watch is the result of human nature, which is a result of the brain which is a result of natural forces. Which does not mean natural forces are the result of human nature, unless you suggest that without the human mind, the forces of nature are unperceived and chaotic.
