[Electronics-talk] Help with Grundig Talking attomic watch!

[Bob Hicks]

I got the current one from the NFB web site, both the watch and clock.  I 
think the watch was $455 and the clock was $35.  Good luck

They didn't list a make or model and I have never asked anyone.  I broke the 
first wrist band, but my jeweler quickly replaced.  Since it was a year old 
then, I had him replace the battery while he had it.

Best regards,
