Atomic Wall Clocks

Look at this clock.

A round wall clock with a white face, black numbers, and black hands, labeled with 'LA CROSSE TECHNOLOGY' and 'ATOMIC TIME'.

It’s a clock.

I bought it once because I needed… a clock.

It’s $29, which is totally reasonable for… a clock.

Then it was Daylight Saving Time one day, and I went to update it, but… it was already updated.

That’s because:

The Atomic Time Feature conveniently allows the clock to sync with the WWVB radio transmission from Fort Collins, CO, for accurate time updates.

That’s amazing?

It listens to a radio signal and adjusts itself to the correct time, even during major time changes.

What a kick-ass UX, while seemingly being no more expensive.

Also: you can just put one battery in it to work, or you can put 2 batteries in it, and it’ll work longer, or 3 batteries, and it’ll last over 5 years.

What the what.

Now it just needs to dust itself, and it’ll be the greatest home device ever.
