Well while we're at it...

My watch is *NOT* digital so will survive an EMF blast and it does
*NOT* have windows but a csh (multi-tasking is an optional extra).
It also supports...

o regular hour & minute hand
o 24 hr hand
o 12 hr stop-watch
o day / date (days are even written in French)
o tachometer gauge
o can endure 200m (!!!) water depth and 6 g's
o self-winding (auto-boot feature)
o scratch proof glass
o pretty glow-in-the-dark arms and dots
o AND the tick sound has a distinctive yodel to it

Anyway, digital watches are for USERs. Real programmers... :)
