since clocks are all the rage these days figure we should have a dedicated thread.

atomic clock based on strontium atoms held in a lattice of laser light is the world’s most precise and stable atomic clock. The image is a composite of many photos taken with long exposure times and other techniques to make the lasers more visible.
The strontium atomic clock has set new world records for both precision and stability, improving precision by 50 percent from the previous record holder of a few years ago.

I love that it is helpfully labelled "sundial" four freaking times with little solar symbols at the corners. Just in case someone was confused and thought it was an abacus or maybe a cuisinart.

I do, at night mostly because I have to. It's taking some time to get a feel for it, the hours are a little difficult because my fingers aren't sensitive enough and I knock the ball away. It's getting easier though.
I dig it, I can't wait for a bit of wear and tear to scuff and scar it up some, I think it will look good worn in.
I went with the titanium and stainless strap. Thanks for the heads up on a cool watch.

It is real. Playboy magazine had these ads somewhere in the late 1970s to early 1980s. I remember seeing an actual watch similar, but it had a black image (probably LCD) of a lady form as well as "TIME TO FUCK" that would become visible.

FCUK is the actual name of a brand. They weren't trying to spell "fuck".
