Answer:

Gabriel was happy and excited to see the watch.

Step-by-step explanation:

The author used a simile - as golden as the sun - to describe the pocket watch in the story 'The Golden Watch'.

This description conveys the notion that the pocket watch was shinning to behold and expresses Gabriel's positive feelings of happiness and excitement on finding the watch which he later called a 'treasure'.

Gabriel was particularly happy to have the pocket watch as earlier paragraphs had told us that he was always running late. The golden pocket watch would therefore help him in keeping to time
