Okay, my more technical Who canon is about as good as your average flower pot's, but I'll try.
I guess these watches are just, I dunno, Time Lord kit that gets handed out at the academy? How fucked up is that!?
LULZ. I think they come with the Chameleon Arch, so yeah, sorta. I suck at Master-background, and he pretty much breaks all the 'rules' anyway which is justified by the fact that he is BATSHIT.
The regeneration thing: 12 regenerations = 13 Doctors is sort of a guideline, I guess? So I'm told? There are ways to cheat it and tons of loopholes in canon, so if Moffatt (taking over for RTD after this round of specials) wants or needs to go beyond 13 a way will be found. The Master got given an extra life by the Time Lords, and then later he turns into a snake-type thing (WHUT) and uses some MacGuffin to get himself a new body. Or something. Just saying, there are ways.
(btw, how cute is it when he says British phrases in his American voice? "You lot"? Dang, Russell T Davies, get an American friend to glance over your script. Or not! After all, you did kill our president like hard.)
Technically Jack isn't supposed to be American, but it still sounds damned silly. It makes a little more sense in his S3 appearances because of where he's been living, but somehow I don't think they thought about that. :P
I've spent so long writing this that everyone else has probably answered it all way better, but oh well.
There is 9,000 gallons of Jack/Nine and /Ten and Doctor/Master ripe for your picking. Sadly I can't rec anything because it's mostly not my bag. (Whoverse pairings seem to need to contain Ianto Jones for me to like them much. Obvs I will tell you to watch Torchwood but you're just as likely to hate it as love it. It's kinda cracky. But canon slash! *points to icon*)
Oh, and if you can get your hands on S4, go for it. It had to grow on me a little but it ended up being a close contender for favorite.
