the cities from different time zones are put together-these are the worst-)

Q
:Why did you made this site?

A: Around 1993 I received a Raketa 24 hour watch as a present.
I was hooked on first site. When is became clear -just by sweating-that my Raketa
wasn't waterproof I went to the watch store to buy me a good 24 hour watch.
You can imagine how bewildered I was to learn that there where none for sale.
Most of the time they didn't even understand what I was talking about.
So that's when my quest began, resulting into this site.
First page on the NeT in 1998
