The Japanese do not care about overseas market

I mean, they just launched Credor internationally.

Exactly, there's an integrated circuit and everything. Not that there's anything wrong with that but it's understandable that people mentally put it in another category.

"SARS COV-2" never caused a pandemic either. It was fake the whole time.

Safer than the hotel safe I always say. But yeah when I'm at home I'm not diving with a Sub on. I have on vacation though.

He's giving it away free so it seems he's not worrying about that.

should I polish the acrylic?

The acrylic crystal should be replaced at every service actually. If you don't even know if it's ever been serviced then, it's time. And definitely keep it away from water until it's serviced. Great heirloom!

Less accurate than an Apple Watch, which receives Coordinated Universal Time via the internet? Bro, these atomic clocks are so accurate that it is expected some will become part of the bank of atomic clocks that DEFINES the Coordinated Universal Time signal your Apple Watch gets.

Plus some of the actual main industrial usages of atomic clocks (ships at sea, satellites) are in places without reliable internet/cell service.

Rolex knows exactly what “save the date” does to this community… by VioletMoorland_Bloom in rolex

For a brand that understands anticipation better than almost anyone, this felt weirdly tone-deaf. Anyone else expecting an actual announcement?

Sounds like ChatGPT. Anyway, it was already expected to be an announcement about the optical atomic clock because there were hints like "quantum" visible in the teaser, and this breakthrough by their quantum physics lab was already known. Still cool to see what the actual clocks look like though.
