Fellow time-nuts,

Please forgive the tangential and blatantly commercial subject 
matter. I remember that a few of you expressed interest in my nixie 
tube wristwatch when I last mentioned it.

I have finally gotten it back into production after a too-long hiatus 
brought on by obsolete parts.

And no, it doesn't have a rubidium oscillator. But you can adjust the 
crystal oscillator frequency (test point provided) and obsess over 
its inadequacies as a precision time source. And the Woz wears one.
