The Nixie Tube Digital Wristwatch!
To view the time; simply press the button on the front of the watch to illuminate the Nixie Tubes. Daylight viewing is good, and nighttime viewing is like an orange beacon.
Why a Nixie Tube Wristwatch? ...because it had never been done before!
The wristwatch was designed using surface mount components, and miniature NOS (1968 vintage) Nixie Tubes.
Some months ago, a friend was looking at a Nixie clock, and asked "Could someone build a Nixie Wristwatch?" Originally, I didn't believe that the electronics, and a HV power supply could be squeezed into a tiny enclosure.
