Swatch Internet TimeThe new global concept of time by Swatch!
No time zones, no geographical differences, no boarders, no limits with the new Swatch beat!
Swatch divided the current 24hours/day into 1000 units (=beats). Therefore 1 beat equals 1 minute 26,4 seconds. The Internet day starts at midnight wintertime in Biel (UTC +1). It is the same time all over the whole world.
You can make your certain chat appointment on the Internet at a certain (Swatch) beat. Everybody talks about the same beat, no matter what time of day it is in their countries.
