Everything about Black Watch Wristwatch totally explained
The
Black Watch is an electronic
wristwatch launched in September
1975 by
Sinclair Radionics. It costed £24.95 ready-built, but was for £17.95 also available as kit.
The Black Watch is equipped with a red
LED display, which is illuminated only when the watchcase's surface is pressed; two resilient spots display hours and minutes or minutes and seconds, respectively.
The product was beset by technical problems including a battery life of just 10 days, variable accuracy and a very sensitive
integrated circuit which could be rendered useless by a static shock from a nylon shirt. In spite of this, Sinclair's advertising still claimed:
» If that sounds technical, think of the outcome: a watch with no moving parts, a watch with nothing to go wrong, a watch which gives accuracy never achievable by the most precise mechanical engineering.(External Link
