While most timepieces merely keep the time, there is one considered to be ahead of its time - the Geocron Global Time Indicator. The Geocron is the only instrument of its kind to simultaneously show time and display the extent of daylight and darkness throughout the world. Using the illuminated pattern on the world map, the Geocron indicates where the sun is shining at any given moment. The left edge of this pattern marks the moment of sunrise, while the right marks sunset. This sunrise and sunset pattern changes continually as the season progress throughout the year, including the winter solstice, summer solstice and the fall and spring equinoxes. When you own a Geocron, you'll have much more than a timepiece. You'll be in possession of a totally handcrafted, yet functional piece of art. Something that generates not only conversation, but inspiration.
Features:
- Functional piece of art
- Sunrise and sunset patterns change with seasons
- Shows time
- Shows the extent of daylight or darkness anywhere in the world
- Indicates where sun is shining at any given moment

Universal Map:
Universal Map was founded in 1976 in the wake of the oil embargo. In earlier years, oil companies spent millions of dollars annually handing out free maps to promote travel. Gas shortages during the embargo virtually halted travel in the U.S., and as a result, the oil companies suspended their free map programs. This left a void in the market that was partially filled by independent distributors, including Universal Map.
Today, Universal Map provides one of the most extensive lists of U.S. travel products available anywhere. As it has grown, Universal Map has also developed specialized product lines including Rush Hour Business Mapping References and Little Passenger children's travel activities. These specialized products also include the largest selection of city folding maps, large format commercial wall maps, laminated folding flip maps, Visual Voyage educational resources, customizable advertising and private label products, and innovative mapping solutions.
New technology-driven mapping solutions also provide unlimited customization services and data display options for any industry. University Map offers several mapping solutions, including FastTrack GIS, a comprehensive process to create a publishable-quality GIS file based on your specifications.
