If you're looking for a unique gift idea in a wrist watch, why not consider Solar atomic watches. The popularity of these precise and battery free wristwatches are hot! If you have never heard of solar powered atomic wrist watches read on. Atomic watches are the most precise timepieces on the market today.

How does atomic watches work?

Originally developed in 1945 by Dr. Isador Rabi, wrist watches that are atomically powered contain a built in receiver that automatically update the time according to the WWVB signal that is broadcast by the NIST (National Institute of Standards & Technology). These watches receive a time calibration signal via satellite and obtain the correct time, which is transmitted from Fort Collins, Colorado.

And solar power runs on light, from the sun or a lamp. The solar power is a great plus to atomic powered watches because there is never a battery to replace. So combining solar power with atomic accuracy gives you the best of two worlds, the correct time with no batteries to change!
