Light Up Watches

[jennyjoan]

Yesterday I (don't watch it very often) but some lady was leaving and was leaving on a big fuss which the staff didn't want.

Anyway she was looked at her watch she must have tapped and the watch jumped in neo lights - then stopped. Anybody know where I would get one. Thanks JJCon

I always try eBay when I see something on the telly that I like.

Look up "Timex Indiglo". It achieved "fame" when an office worker led a group of fellow workers by the light of his watch down the stairs of one of the towers during 9/11.

If you get one, you'll have something in common with President Bush:)
"Default Re: Former President Bush's Wristwatch? (RE: Brad Maisto)

I believe President Bush is known to favor Timex watches.
In Kosovo he was wearing a Timex Indiglo."

I only wear Timex Indiglo watches.

Thank you for the endorsement, Madam President:)

"Following on the success of the Ironman Triathlon line, Timex introduced the Indiglo night light during the Christmas shopping season in 1992. By January 1993 Indiglo had made headlines as a result of the bombing of the World Trade Center in which an office worker wearing a Timex with an Indiglo night light used its light to guide a group of evacuees down 40 dark flights of stairs. Sales immediately took off leading to an increase in Timex's American market share.[25]"

thanks all for your answers - I have just looked at some of your info.

None of them apply. The wrist band is coloured and plastic looking with maybe neon lights inside the wrist and light up maybe red blue and yellow very rapidly. Probably for kids but I liked them.

It may help if you can remember the programme you saw the watch on as maybe someone will recall it.
