Global internet time, centered in Biel Switzerland, spans all time zones - dividing each into 1000 beats!

Internet Time represents a completely new global concept of time: No Time Zones and No Geographical Borders.
Swatch Group has divided the virtual and real day into 1000 "beats". One Swatch beat is the equivalent of 1 minute 26.4 seconds. That means that 12 noon in the old time system is the equivalent of @500 Swatch beats.
