Atomic Watch

The watch that is always correct

This technology is based on the cesium atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado, operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which breaks a second into over 9 billion parts. The Atomic Clock drives a radio transmitter that broadcasts a continuous signal with this time information East to the Eastern border of Quebec, West to Kodiak Island, Alaska, and South to Mexico City, Mexico. Outside of this area it is an excellent quartz watch, keeping time to within + or - a half of a second a day.

Will pickup the NIST signal wherever AM reception is good. The magic of this watch is an easy to use, trouble free radio-controlled movement that automatically sets itself to the NIST signal each night. Self-adjusts for Daylight Savings Time. Perpetual calendar self-adjusts monthly as well as for Leap Year.

The Stainless steel bezel and band support the water and impact resistant plastic housing which allows the radio signal to reach the antenna and microprocessor. The works are made in Germany, the band in China. Arrives adjusted to fit an 8" wrist. By removing links, it can be reduced to fit as small as 6-1/4". Larger sizes available on special order. The case measures 1-1/2" in diameter and 7/16" thick. Weighs 2.6 oz. Operates on a lithium battery (included).
