I'm a fan of any technology that takes care of the little stuff I don't want to have to think about. Or constantly forget to do. (Which is why my DVR is my most valued possession.) If you're a guy who considers "little stuff" to be winding your watch, changing its battery, or just setting the correct time, consider the new Oceanus OCWM700 series watch.

Not your typical techno-loaded timepiece, the Oceanus delivers a host of gizmos in a high-end style watch that'll satisfy your inner gadget geek, without being embarrassing to actually wear.

Called the "world's first atomic solar chronograph watch" it regularly receives radio signals from the atomic transmitter in Ft. Collins, CO, resetting your watch to the exact time. Even Daylight Savings Time and Leap Years. And it's accurate to the split second, for you time nazis. If you're traveling, you can also set the OCWM700 to automatically set to the time signals from the UK, Germany, and Japan.

Since the ability to have hyper-accurate time anywhere in the world is irrelevant if you forget to wind it or the batter dies, the Oceanus runs on solar power. If you're a cubical dweller and rarely get to see the actual sun, don't worry. It can power up from indoor light sources as well.

If you spend any time on the water - some boating, a little fishing, maybe just floating around the jet stream on a raft - the Oceanus gives you the high and low tides on its tidegraph. It's also water resistant to 100M, in case you fall off the raft. And sink like a rock. (At least you'll know how long to hold your breath for low tide.)

For you style conscious guys, it comes in either titanium or stainless steel, and is covered with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. A chronograph, day and date calendar, and daily alarm, round out the package.
