minus-squaremy_hat_stinkslinkfedilinkEnglish7•5 months ago Swatch Internet Time (or .beat time) is a decimal time system introduced in 1998 by the Swatch corporation as part of their marketing campaign for their line of “.beat” watches. I could be wrong, but I’m fairly certain watches existed in 1998.
