If time is important!

Anyone who's anyone has seen them in stores. They have gone from a $20 watch to something over $400 or more if you ask little bow wow who had diamond placed on his. The thing I refer to is a watch called g-shock. It got started( so I'm told) when a fireman that had one for so long that the band finally broke during a drive out on the fire truck and when they finally found it, it had been ran over by the fire truck but to his surprise nothing happened to it. Not mechanical damage what so ever and this led to every fireman in that district and finally through the city hunting down there very own. And so begin the legend of the g-shock. Now this may be just one of a million stories that prove that this watch survives just about anything physically its put through. Its better than most any other watch on the market when it comes down to shock effects on the watch, pressure, freezing, etc. Now this watch that I just got has a amazing feature( on top of it being a G-shock)that is placed on some of g-shocks lines called atomic solar touch line. And what this means for one is that you want be needing a battery anytime soon because it runs of light. This comes in handy for me because I have at least 3 watches right now that have failed batteries that 2 of them can't be opened up to change the battery even if I got a new battery. Well no more of that now. And the 2nd thing is the atomic time. To me this is the most amazing feature. People all over the world spend thousands of dollars getting watches that are built to provide the best time and we now have the best possible way to keep time perfect and without even a second lapse. Atomic time! Atomic time messures time by correctly timing a atom transition as the true measurment of what a "Second" is and how long it truly last. No other mechnical or quartz watch in the world can do this. And this is done in certain spots over the world and all the atomic systems send out a signal to all items, computers or watches that have a ability to receive its signal. It send them all a sync time that is perfectly matched with its own and all other items getting this signal. So this equals to one correct time forever for everyone that has a tomic time item. No more reseting the clocks or being 2 minutes late because your watch says one thing and the time clock says another. Now this isn't new by any means. But there are a lot of people that just don't know this so I wanted to post it just in case it could help.
