Anyone have a clock on their handlebar or anywhere?

Is there anyway I can fix a clock or watch on my motorcycle handlebar or somewhere? Is there a special waterproof kind of clock available that can be attached? Or better still any ideas for improvisation? I have a long ride to work and my watch is up my sleeve/inside gloves etc on a raining day and difficult to check frequently. Any ideas are appreciated.

:D That's cool! I never saw one of those before.
It says 'easy to clip on', does that mean its also easy to clip off and a theft worry? Maybe some way to secure it on permanently would be good?

Thankyou.

No you take it with you if you are worried about theft. Besides there are no thieves in Japan. :laughing:

You can always buy a cheap digital water resistant watch and put it around the handlebars and wiring.

That handlebar watch isn't waterproof, although I had mine on my bars for well over 4 years
in all kinds of weather, and it always seemed to dry out and work fine. It took a so called watch
repair man replacing the battery to screw it up beyond repair...

For a bit more money you can get a Formotion clock. I've had one of the Classic series bolt-on models on my Bonneville's handlebars for 3 years.

I went cheap and bought a $15 chrome watch from Walmart and attached it to my handlebars with black zip ties.

Actually looks pretty nice.
