Icon10 A cheers!

...to that moment every so often when you happen to hear the day wheel click at midnight, and the sound is so awesome and you realize you're wearing an incredible piece of engineering history.

Thats so totally true and I'm glad you said it.
I know it may sound sad but if I'm not doing something I will pause just to hear the date wheel flip over. That sound is so sharp and crisp it truly is something special. I'm legally blind so I think my hearing is super sensitive.
Hearing that click makes me so happy
