^ Like I said, I disagree with the part that Jeanne could retrieve her. However, the main reason Bayonetta kept Jeanne's watch was to keep track of how much time she had left. According to the wiki (I don't care to look up the cutscenes), all the watch does is prevent them from physically aging and keep track of the amount of time a soul has before being assimilated. This has no relation to her soul being assimilated. While Bayonetta cannot come back, she has not been fully assimilated yet and as such she cannot be considered dead.
