- Jamie McFly

- You bought yourself an Atomic Watch (a wristwatch that receives the broadcast time from the atomic clock). Not because you will always have the correct date and time, but because there is something about it that makes you think BTTF. Atomic-time. Now that would be a cool BTTF product!
