NEW YORK, Feb. 23, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Continuing its 163-year history of offering The Best, the Only and the Unexpected, Hammacher Schlemmer introduces The Best Talking Watch after it earned the highest ratings in every test conducted by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute.
The Hammacher Schlemmer Institute is a not-for-profit corporation established in 1983 to research, test, and rate products objectively and without commercial bias. After extensive side-by-side comparison testing of leading products within a specific category, the Institute awards The Best title to the model that outperforms all other candidates.
The Best Talking Watch announced the correct current time in a clear, audible male voice during every test conducted by the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute analysts, unlike lesser models that were difficult to hear or failed to speak at all. The Best Talking Watch only requires the user to press one button to hear the current time, unlike other watches that required multiple touches.
"The Best Talking Watch also spoke the current day and date, unlike other watches that could only speak the time," explained Sheri Camarata, Manager of Product Research for the Hammacher Schlemmer Institute.
The Best Talking Watch is the only model that automatically synchronizes with atomic clocks in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, or Japan to ensure accurate timekeeping that won't gain or lose a second for 80 million years.
The watch also automatically updates for Daylight Saving Time, it has an hourly chime, an alarm, stainless steel case, and a black leather band.
The Talking Watch is available from Hammacher Schlemmer for $99.95. For more information about this product, please visit www.hammacher.com/79673 or contact Trish Hammond at (847) 581-8987 or via e-mail at [email protected]
