[Electronics-talk] Braille Watch Question

[Christopher Chaltain]

I agree completely. I'm looking for one for my brother, so if anyone 
knows where one can be had, I'm still interested in that information 
even though I have one already myself.

It's worth what you pay for it, the sad thing is though, they discontinued this watch. You're gonna have a hard time finding one but if you do you'll never look back. I love mine. Take care.

You slide your finger around the outside of the face and feel bibrations as your finger moves past the hour and minute hands. Like I said, you can also set a vibrating alarm on it as well.
