Subtly Display Your Geek Cred with the Cadence 4-Bit Chrono Watch

Unlike the watches that display the time in a pattern of colored lights, the 4-Bit Chrono UTC Watch from the Cadence Watch Co. looks like a typical analog watch with date and chronograph functions.  The geekery is subtle in this one:  the hour markers are displayed in 4-bit code with the least significant bit to the outside of the watch, and the red hand marks the UTC time.  The watch has a 42mm-diameter stainless steel case with a leather band.  The quartz movement is made in Japan, and the watch is water -resistant to 5ATM.  The watch will be released soon, but you can pre-order it for $195, which is a 40% savings. ...
