Comment Douglas Adams Edition Pulsar (Score 4, Informative) 466
The original Pulsar digital watch was marketed through upmarket jeweller, Tiffany and Co. A solid gold version sold for $2,000 and a stainless steel model for $275.
Digital watches initially caught on only in the US and very few were exported. There was a strong market for them in 1973 and prices dropped quickly. Other firms entered the market, including Bowmar, which also pioneered the early pocket calculators in the US.
These are only sold at the gift shop in the Restaurant at the end of the Universe and at the Big Bang Burger Bar.
