NOV-045 E Howard Atomic Watch

Radio Controlled watches and clocks are not new. Using the time base of the Cesium "Atomic" Clock of the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology, located in Boulder, Colorado, exact time has been broadcast for years by WWVB on the shortwave radio bands.

But what is new and exciting is the introduction of this technology into fine quality, handsome, classically styled watches like the watches shown here from E. Howard & Co. This traditional watch now keeps the most accurate time on earth!

These watches are the latest addition to the E. Howard & Co. line, recognized since 1842 for remarkably accurate, reliable and tasteful timepieces. The elegant and classic design immediately sets this watch apart from other "atomic" watches. This watch is a fine piece of jewelry. It doesn't look like a computer readout. The technology is hidden behind the handsome case and dial.

The heart of the E. Howard Radio Controlled Watch is a precision microprocessor that keeps accurate time even when no radio signal can be received.

The watch movement is an easy-to-use and trouble-free radio-controlled movement that automatically sets itself to the National Institute of Standards and Technology radio signal each night. The watch self-adjusts for Daylight Saving Time. This astonishing watch also features a perpetual calendar which has the correct month and date, even during leap years, like 2008! In fact, this amazing watch will even adjust to the Leap Minute and Second in the century to come!

The E. Howard watch is water resistant and features a hardened mineral glass crystal. The fine padded leather strap is moisture resistant for years of wear.
