Choose what LED’s you like and this watch will serve you will, there is one other factor to think about and that is the binary code. These LED’s give you the time in binary code so that is something else to think about as it can be somewhat frustrating at times.

Features of the red or blue LED watch:

There are two rows of LEDs – the top row for the hours and the bottom row for the minutes. With a little practice you can learn to read this time format easily. Won’t it be fun the next time someone asks you “what time is it?” and you can enjoy their bewildered expression when you flash your wrist emblazoned with glowing binary? Yes it will, you quietly smirk to yourself.
