English[edit]
Noun[edit]
digital watch (plural digital watches)
- A watch, usually electronic, that displays time in the form of numbers, rather than by a dial and hands.
- 1979, Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy:
- Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.
