Completing quests in Escape From Duckov is important. Not only do they guide players on how the game's foundations work, but they also give bucket-loads of XP and money for your troubles. However, quests aren't always simple, and most of the time, players will really need to pay attention to what quest givers say about the stuff they want done.
Much like the survival-extraction games that Escape From Duckov takes inspiration from, many of its quests have vague objectives. The Bronze Pocket Watch quest, for example, will have players looking for a tank truck somewhere east of Ground Zero. If you're wondering where to find the watch for the Weapons NPC, then here's a quick guide showing you what you need to do.
Escape From Duckov: Bronze Pocket Watch Location
Like the quest description says, the Bronze Pocket Watch is in a tank truck at the far east side of Ground Zero. To get there, you'll first need to get 2 Wood. You can usually find some in the tool boxes around the vicinity of the bunker entrance, but if you're not having any luck, you can always try checking the vending machine back at base.
Now that you have your two planks of wood, head to the east side of the map from the bunker entrance. From the crossroad, go to your right, and keep following the path until you find a broken bridge. Repair that bridge using the planks in your inventory, then cross it to reach a road full of abandoned vehicles. Follow that road south, and at the very end, you'll find truck with a tank on its back. Interact with the driver seat door of that truck, and you'll find the Bronze Pocket Watch.
The great thing about this quest is that it ends right next to a shortcut leading back to the bunker's cellar. To the left of the quest truck are a few boxes, and one of them is blocking a manhole cover. Interact with that box to remove it, and you'll unlock the shortcut back to base. You can use this shortcut at any time, and it's especially good if you want to fight the mercenary ducks further up the road to farm for cash and guns.
Return to Xavier, the Weapon NPC at your base, and give him the Bronze Pocket Watch. He'll give you 1000 EXP and 1000 Currency for your trouble. More importantly, you'll soon be able to take more quests from Xavier, and if you complete those, you'll unlock more of his inventory.
