The only problem is that you have to hold down a button to see the time at all (press the button again to see the date), just like the old Pulsar LEDs.

I came across an interesting site recently called timeanddate which has answers to pretty much any and all time/date related questions. Among their many articles and resources, I found an extremely thorough Replica Omega 2223.80 Seamaster Watch explanation of Swatch Internet Time, including a tool for converting Internet Time to standard time in about 130 different time zones.I wrote about Internet Time in my review of the Swatch Paparazzi (watch pictured at right). Internet Time is to time what the metric system is to measurement.
It was invented by Swatch, and as far as I know, isnt much more than a marketing gimmick at this point, although I personally think its a pretty interesting concept. Internet Time does away with time zones, and with the basically arbitrary units of 60 and 24. The day is divided into 1000 beats with each beat equaling 1 minute and 26.4 seconds. Since there are no time zones in Internet Time, the time is the same all over the world with the reference point being Biel, Switzerland, the location of Swatch Replica Omega 2804.52.37 Aqua Terra Watch Groups headquarters. This new meridian is referred to as BMT, or Biel Mean Time. Internet Time is expressed by the number of beats proceeded by an at () symbol. For instance, 2:27 PM in San Francisco is expressed as 997.I really like the concept of Internet Time for two primary reasons: 1. It has the same kind of intuitive logic as the metric system.
