I am a trained observer. You are wearing the watch, and you spin the stem ahead five minutes.
I still see you standing there. Mass and energy are conserved. But you do not move. I take out my microscope. Nothing on you is moving at all, not a hair, not a microbe. You are cold to the touch, colder. You must not be moving even at molecular or atomic scales.
I look closer. It is not you I see, but a mirror surface that perfectly conforms to the surface of your skin, each hair, each freckle. Even light itself is not interacting with you, but reflects from you 100%.
I use a baseball bat and gently push against you. You fall over with a surprising lack of sound. You cannot be moved, even to make vibrations. The only sound comes from the floor material. You are in total stasis, the Unmovable Object. I strike you with the bat, but only the bat goes thud.
The five minutes are... UP! Your eyes flicker and your body twitches violently to find yourself lying on your back. No time has passed for you at all.
