I guess you can call hex and binary as just “math”, but they are more like “computer science”. Well, I guess compssci used to be called computer math so you may still have a point…
Conflarnit, I’m so far removed from actually using math I can only figure out exactly half of these. You young whippersnappers and your new math and your protractors and metal compasses and abacuses.
For neatness, I would prefer a dial of a single mathematical system. I like the binary representation of ’8′ — a dial of numbers represented by 0s and 1s would be cool.
My dad has a wall clock version in his office. I also would think that this would be a good gift for a math teacher or professor. Diamonds don’t really last forever, after a really long time the turn into graphite. Better get your lover platinum.

Thank you, that was my random statement of the day.
Where can I get this?

Must. Have.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Where do I buy one of these!!
Can one actually buy this watch?
agreed! i know someone who would love this!
Seriously! Where do you find this watch?
Want. Where can get?
I can’t find THIS one but yes they are real
http://www.gadgetlife.eu/displayITM2.asp?ITMID=5691
I’ll keep searching
I actually want this watch!!!!!!!!
I WANT ONE!!!!!
Not only math. That’s some real nerd stuff!
Also known as…. math.

You might mislead someone if you tell him it’s 3! o’clock.
Does that thing come with a calculator?

Abucai.
That’s “abaci”, although “abacuses” is also correct, according to some dictionaries.
*Abacai
Alternatively you could just count the hour lines… it is still a clock after all…

There you are for purchasing!
My geek-tastic-ness is research related
The boyfriernds is math…and I must have this watch for him!
the equation that is supposed to represent 5 aactually equals 4
Assuming phi is the “Golden ratio”, which I admit to never having heard of before, 5 is correct.
In the absence of any other context, I’ve always understood phi to represent the golden ratio (sqrt(5)+1)/2).
nope – if we let s = 5^(1/2), then phi = 1/2 + s/2 (the golden ratio). so, 2*phi = 1 + s and 2*phi – 1 = s, meaning (2*phi -1 )^2 = s^2 = 5.

You can get a binary watch through thinkgeek:

You should look up “binary wristwatch”. Trust me, there are a lot of those.
I’ve seen these several places. We have a wall clock version in our house.
they are easy to find on the internet.
hey anybody seen the 6.9 infinite on the 7th hour hand? got me lolling
Want !
For serious math-geeks, try this clock:

*Maths.
As in ‘mathematics’.
Ow. This watch makes my brain hurt!
No, I was never good at math!
It’d be cooler if the wrist were a mobius strip!
not really — the twist would be pretty uncomfortable.

I am buying this. NOW.
LOL!
The “4″ appears incorrect — 2^(-1) mod 7 is just 0.5
I have this as a clock. It was a gift, but I think it was from thinkgeek.com
Am I the only person who noticed that Pi is missing?
I. HATE. MATH.
That is all.
