There are watches, talking watches and atomic watches, and then there is the Atomic Talking Watch. This attractive and stylish watch features all the benefits of atomic time while speaking the day, month and year. Its features include big numbers on an easy-to-read dial, a good-looking leather band and a cheerful wake-up chime alarm.
This multi-purpose watch is loaded with terrific features. At the push of a button, the watch will clearly announce the time, date, day of the week, month and year. The watch has an easy-to-customize alarm that will beep for 30 seconds before stopping and will stop by pressing any button. The watch also has an hourly chime feature, which can be turned on or off.
The watch’s atomic features include automatic adjustment for standard and daylight savings time. It can be adjusted for Pacific, Mountain, Central, and Eastern Time zones. The watch will communicate with the atomic time signals if placed face down in a window overnight -- the adjustment occurs at 3 a.m. every morning.
In addition to being a fantastic timepiece, this watch is very fashionable. Its black leather band and classic white face with bold black numbers allow it to be worn formally or casually. The watch’s analog display features an hour, minute and sweeping second hand.

After getting his Atomic Talking Watch last year, my Dad, who's almost 86, packed away the lovely expensive watch that my late mother gave him.
(I think he ordered it himself after seeing a TV ad.)
Although his eyesight's pretty good, he really appreciates having the correct date and time read out to him. Fortunately the watch is able to get its time signal where he is in Canada, so he knows it's correct.

Don't confuse firstSTREET's "Atomic" watch with the cheaper, simuliar LOOKING, but NOT TALKING; watch my credit card company had for purchase on it's payments envelope. Simuliar; but not the same.
I'm maybe a "two-star" old guy when it comes to figuring out cell phones, computers, and modern electronic things. I've never been able to get the dial face hands into my Eastern Time Zone, so the watch-face can show the correct time. The talking push-buttons do tell the correct time and date.
The big shopping mall watch-kiosk guy after half an hour's fiddling, could not change one time-zone. The Wal Mart watch gal changed two time-zones; but never could get it to Eastern. The watch-face time is still wrong.
Had firstSTREET used my zip code to set my time-zone it was shipped to: Five Stars.

This is the second atomaic watch I have owned and is the better of the two and well worth the money. It connects with the govertnment source without problem. I like the analog face better than the previous digital one.

Very good quality watch, as you'd expect for this type of price range. All around a pretty good value compared to some of the other brand names out there.

I got this one as a Christmas Gift and it's great, no complaints from dad about this one. It's really good because he can't see very well so he doesn't have to put on reading glasses just to see his watch anymore.

So this watch is pretty awesome, it talks! It also uses "atomic time" which is really accurate. The only thing I wish was better about it was if it could be turned up even louder!
