Product Description
Smart tech and smart style with atomic accuracy- never set your watch again Style and technology wrapped around your wrist in a unique, high-tech timepiece. Unlike today's average analog wristwatches, the E. Howard Continental is enhanced with a liquid crystal display that adds increased functionality. The E. Howard Continental wristwatch has a built in receiver that automatically tunes itself to the WWVB signal broadcast by the US Government's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This ensures that you always have the most accurate time and date. Daylight saving time is even updated automatically! Radio and television stations have been using this exact technology for years. The E. Howard Continental wristwatch also offers durability with its scratch resistant crystal and polished stainless steel, water-resistant case.

 Disapointing September 4, 2010
Herbert J. Dobb (Downey, CA USA)
First failure: Restaining strap came apart. Replacement cost for strap more than the watch.
2nd failure: Wouldn't change with global time change.
3 rd failure. Just quit. Never able to get started right.
Looking for replacement.
 I like this watch April 12, 2010
G. Carpenter (Park Hill, OK USA)
I have used "Atomic" watches for several years now. I bought this one to replace a similar one that died after some years of use. This one died in abut a week. Their customer service fixed it in really good order: seemed it needed a new battery.
This watch keeps good time, but the WWVB receiver is a little weak. That might be an antenna problem, or a problem induced by the metal case. At any rate, it will miss the time signal indoors in the day and indoors on a stormy night. Other than that, it seems to work fine.
Buy one, you are likely to like it.

This is my 2nd watch by E Howard. Problem with the last watch, failed to receive updates to time. Could not set manually.
Easy to read October 18, 2009
nobleday (WA - United States)
I purchased this to replace another E.Howard Atomic Watch. My husband loves it because the larger numbers are easier to read, it keeps accurate time and is comfortable.
He loved the old one, until the battery died. Then we couldn't reset it. We followed the instructions, but it didn't reset to the correct time. He went back to a "regular" wristwatch and was very unhappy and missed the accuracy of the atomic watch.
So I ordered him this newer model, which I couldn't set either. After 3 days it went back to a different time zone (Eastern). I called Amazon.com customer service. They ordered a new watch to be sent and asked me to return it, postage paid.
There were no problems setting the replacement. He loves it. It keeps accurate time and the leather band is comfortable. The next time we need to replace the battery, I will take the instruction book to the jeweler along with the watch. My husband will always wear one of these atomic watches, we hope this is the last one we buy.
Seconds are dead on, check the minutes. July 20, 2009
Lawrence (York Harbor, Maine)
I love this watch but can only give it four stars. It receives the WWVB signal every two or three days in Maine, so the seconds are dead accurate, but it once lost seven minutes. I was able reset it and it has not gone off since. I find this extremely careful tracking of seconds along with careless loss of minutes somewhat endearing - it reminds me of some of my own misplaced priorities.
The size and clarity of the display are also good for my tired aging eyes, like a kitchen clock with a strap. The watch it replaced had a plethora of little dials trying to tell me things I don't need to know and I had to find my best reading glasses and stare at it in good light just to tell the time.
So this "atomic" watch is my favorite among a drawer full of time keepers, but I check the minutes every now and then.
