The Saab Clock....
Awhile ago while waiting for my 9000Turbo to get out of the shop (A once
a year $1000 experience) I was looking at some old Saab Sonnets. Their
clocks looked drop in to the BHIMDB (big hole in my dash board). I just
didn't like the Saab name and flying wings on it.
Probably somebody a long time ago recognized the same thing and decided
it was better to have the clock no matter what it said.
