SEIKO Astron, the world's first GPS solar watch, was recently launched in Shanghai. The breakthrough timepiece can receive GPS signals and identify time zones, time and date data using the global network of GPS satellites. It recognizes all the 39 time zones on earth.
Like its celebrated 1969 predecessor which was the world's first quartz watch, the new Seiko Astron ushers in a new age of timekeeping technology, says the watchmaker. When you step off a flight, just press a button and the time zone adjustment is automatic. It takes just six seconds for the time to self-correct and just 30 seconds for the location. Solar-powered, it never needs a battery change.
