World's first atomic pocket watch — 'Will never gain or lose a second for 30 million years'*
From the website:
••••••••••••••••••••••••
Atomic Pocket Watch
This is
the only pocket watch that maintains its unerring accuracy by radio
signal from an atomic clock.
Providing accurate time across the entire
contiguous United States, it receives a time signal from the radio
clock transmitter in Fort Collins, Colorado once a day, ensuring that
it will never gain or lose a second for 30 million years.
The case is
made from surgical-grade stainless steel; the watch face uses analog
hours and minute hands with an LCD that shows date and seconds (a press
of a button alternates between date and seconds).
The 14" stainless
steel chain terminates in a lobster-clasp.
2"Ø x 1/2"D.

*Assuming, of course, that the atomic clock in Fort Collins continues to send out a signal for the next 30 million years.
Me, I wouldn't count on it....
