I know only a few people who would be able to appreciate the brilliance behind the 4bit Clock. Created by the Cadence Watch Company, this clock tells time using binary numbers.
Chances are that if you aren't a computer programmer of some sort, you won't be able to easily tell time using the 4bit Clock. Oh, sure, you could always use the positioning of the shaded-in bars to tell the time, but that would take all of the fun and nerdiness out of the 4bit Clock.
The 4bit Clock is available for preorder now for $68. The Cadence Watch Company also offers a 4bit Binary Watch for those of you looking to take your skills at reading computer code on the road.
