Solar wristwatch with fold-out shadow casters for mid-latitudes (50° N) to display true local time (solar time)
- Sundial powered by the cosmic clockwork of the Earth and Sun, no batteries or clock springs required.
- Built-in compass not only for aligning the sundial, but also very practical for orientation in the field.

The Helioswatch displays the solar time derived from nature. When the sun is at its highest point at midday, it shows 12 o'clock solar time. This is true midday, which divides the day into two equal halves, the morning and the afternoon, in the true sense of the word. This time always refers to the longitude at which you are currently located and is therefore also called true local time (TLT).
The oldest timepiece known to mankind, featuring elegant design and precision craftsmanship – these are the sundials from Helios.
