Seiko Astron GPS Solar: Clever new watch

    You can spend tens of thousands on a tourbillon¬toting masterpiece of the watchmaker's art, but as expensive watches go, this Seiko is something special. It doesn't need some kind of exquisite mechanism to keep itself wound or stay accurate: it charges using solar panels, and keeps time by pinging satellites. Just got off a flight? Press a single button and the hands will pop to the local time, accurate to one second in a million years. Which ought to be accurate enough, really.
