Binary Watch

[ Skip Preamble ]

This is dedicated to all ape descendants who still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea. Based on the Samui Moon watch by Time Technology, this fabulous virtual timepiece will be most enjoyed by the sort of people who go to the pub and count their change in binary, or hex. It is also for my girlfriend. She denies ever having descended from apes! But it might inspire her when it comes time to do her Christmas shopping. And, of course, it is also dedicated to the late, great Douglas Adams, who did so much to make society sass those of us who suffer from slightly nerdy tendencies as being really hoopy froods. Note: The LED's change every minute and the time is taken from your computer's internal clock.
