A pun is a joke that exploits the possible meanings of the word. Based on this the answer would be A. The reason why is because he is looking for his watch (which is an instrument to tell time) and made a reference to not being able to find time.
Here goes more examples on puns if you didn't get the point: http://examples.yourdictionary.com/examples-of-puns.html The direct definition of a pun is: a joke exploiting the different possible meanings of a word or the fact that there are words that sound alike but have different meanings. Another example of a pun would be "the pigs were a squeal (if you'll forgive the pun)" because pigs squeal.
