10;10;31 is the time and 28 is the date that most watch manufacturers use in their pictures.

Well, it's long ago since it was 10.10.31 AM here in Denmark, so I will have to wait for the time being 10.10.31 PM.

No, more like some type of LUNATIC event when some of us here will actually fetch our cams and take pics of our watches showing 10.10.31.

Goes to figure. As I am standing in the middle of the road, looking up at the damn sky, trying to figure out what in the heck is so important about 10:10:31 on the 28th.....I finally get run over by the green tram. Had to happen eventually. I m an idiot, but a happy idiot.

The most important city in the world is in Eastern Standard Time (GMT -5).






That's right, Scranton, PA.

I've been to Scranton... Wilkes-Barre is nearby and there is a good old ale-house there... Elmer Suds it's called...

I think I got it....almost....nearly.

Pretty close for an 8-year old Sony that takes 3-5 seconds to shoot the pic.
