 Radio-Controlled Atomic Wrist Watch From E. Howard & Co. Keeps the Most Accurate Time on Earth — And You’ll Never Set Your Watch, Ever!
The venerable Boston firm of E. Howard & Co., the Nation’s Timekeeper since 1842, has been making clocks and pocket watches of impeccable quality for well over 150 years. Now they’ve asked us to introduce the first R/C watch that gives you the convenience and accuracy of atomic time, while retaining classic elegance. The National Institute of Standards & Technology operates a cesium atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado that refines a single second into 9 billion intervals — then drives a radio transmitter at Fort Collins that broadcasts an 8-bit time & date signal throughout North America.
 The Attaché receives and resets to that precise signal at 2:00 am each night — self adjusting for Daylight Savings Time and Leap Year. You’ll never set the time again! Select perpetual Date or Seconds on the LCD display merely by pressing the recessed button on the 3 o’clock side (notice there’s no stem!). Or, press the recessed button on the 9 o’clock side to manually reset time when outside North America. Scratch-resistant crystal and sealed case are completely water resistant to 165 feet. Choose polished stainless steel case with black leather band; or gold-plated case with brown leather band. Includes 2-year lithium cell. Attaché still keeps accurate quartz time when traveling beyond North America — just not atomic time!
