Four more years.



Obama's victory post on Facebook and Twitter

Note he's still wearing the JORG GRAY 6500 SERIES CHRONOGRAPH

You can also see it in the recent debates.  Pretty cool considering he could have any other watch.

Sparkle: He values the gifts given to him and holds onto the things dear to him.

Nixie Tube Watch

Via Retro Thing.



"I've mentioned Nixies before; here's my "standard" description of these little critters: Nixies are neon-filled glass tubes that were often used to display numeric information in the days before LCDs and LEDs. They usually contain ten cathodes in the shape of the numbers 0 through 9, and a wire mesh anode. When electricity is passed between one of the cathodes and the anode, the corresponding number shines with an odd orangey-red glow. Be sure to check out Forbes' Nixie Watch Story for a fascinating look at the development of this unique watch."
