In Nier Replicant, Broken Wristwatch can be collected as drops from tower-wielding Shades at the Southern Plains in part 2 of the campaign. The armored shades may also drop Broken Wristwatches in the northern plains. Hunting for these enemies in slightly cloudy weather would be another particular situation for them to spawn. When the sky is entirely clouded over or overcast, armored shades do not appear.
When you arrive, look for the big, armored Shades with shields. All the way back to Emil’s Mansion, there should be a pair of sets of these guys. If it’s bright outside, they breed in larger numbers; if it’s gloomy, they spawn in smaller groups. They’re a challenge to kill relative to their smaller rivals, so go with staggers to get rid of them quickly. All the way back to Emil’s Mansion, there should be a pair of sets of these guys. It’s best to wipe them out along the road from Seafront to the Mansion, then enter and leave Seafront easily to respawn them.
