Clock on your bike???

Every once in a while, I'm always curious to know what time it is when I'm riding. Since I wear a my jacket and the wrist is always covered up, I don't know what time it is. So I made a solution.
The watch was a gag gift for Father's day a couple of years ago..
How many of you guys out there sometimes wonder what time it is when your riding???

I always wonder what time it is. No clock either.
My KTM has clock functionality in the computer, so I don't have to worry about it then.
I've thought about some stick on clock or an old watch too. But for now I'll make due until I find something I like.

my old bike (03' 620) had a digital clock on it so when i got the 'new' one (00' 900) i was lacking a clock
i ended up finding a deal on ArtsCow.com (i think) and i had them print up a pocket watch with the ducati logo and i velcroed it to the same place you did
couple thousand miles on it and still going strong

What I like about this watch, is you can also figure out math problems, WHILE knowing the time.

I had one of those watches. It wasn't a gag back then.

Yea, my scoot came with one and I count on it - literally.
Got spoiled long ago with my R90S in 1974 that came with a VDO Clock. Gentleman's express.
That's kinda how the S4RS feels - a gentleman's express. [moto] Comes with a clock.

My 05 620 has one in the instrument cluster. Occasionally it's even accurate.

I just bought a cheap Timex Indiglo®, filed the watch band tabs off, dabbed a spot of silicone on the back and stuck it on the clutch master cylinder cap. I tried to get a watch face that matched the Veglia Speedo/Tach faces. you would be surprised how many people think the clock is OEM.
