The Casio Waveceptor watch product line incorporate this fascinating technology. If you have been following my blog, you will undoubtedly get my view on atomic digital watches (freaking awesome!).
Typical Waveceptor watches as do other in Casio's product range receive a synchronisation signal from a number of atomic clocks located across the planet. There a two main transmitter sites in Europe, one in the UK (Rugby, Warickshare) and another in Germany (Mainflingen). There are also other atomic clocks located in the US and Japan. So as you go about your daily business, under the hood, your Waveceptor is receiving and updating itself automatically.
Casio have produced stunning looking, yet completely practical digital watches over the last few years. I particularly have my eye on the Edifice Gold 700 Series Dual Time Watch. Its roughly retailing on Amazon for about $290, which I suppose is quite reasonable. This watch is packed with functionality and is supposedly perfected for the active lifestyle. Humour sly, everyone thinks they have an active lifestyle! It was added to my wish list weeks ago, however things have been pretty tight the last while and I don't want guilt myself into buying one. Well, not just yet!
They say the Casio Edifice gold line is suppose to promote a sense of speed and intelligence. I must send Casio an email on my lunch someday asking them how the hell their digital watch promotes such. Maybe one of my followers has already done so. I am usually not the one to be fooled my such marketing spiel, but I really have to admit, it is an impressive piece of kit.
I have also seen this atomic digital watch on a number of websites that sell scuba diving equipment. So if those guys are recommending this Waveceptor watch, it is safe to presume that the watch water resistance is adequate.
