The Solder:Time Watch Kit is a Maker Shed favorite for several reasons; it’s simple, it’s functional, and it looks great!  The watch comes unassembled and includes a laser cut acrylic enclosure and wrist strap. The bright red LED display is driven by a PIC16 using a Dallas DS1337+ RTC chip for accurate time keeping. The time is displayed on demand for increased battery life but can be jumpered for always on use. If you’re looking for a great conversation starter, this is it! It seems that every time I wear mine in public people can’t help but ask me where I got it. Of course I tell them “I made it!”

    A pocket watch option would be cool.
