I saw this in Electronics Australia Feb 1999 issue. But if there's
one beat every 86.4 seconds, that may be a bit too far apart imho.
Could use 10000beats/day, for 8.64 seconds/beat. Or 65536 beats/day
which is 1.318 seconds. (The 65536 being 10000 hexidecimal).
BTW, the Swatch Watch looks pretty cool.
