I've never had any trouble. When my cheap digital watch dies every 3-4 years, I go to the local discount store and say I want another cheap digital watch and it MUST display 24 h format. There's always been a more-than-adequate selection. Nat

Watches are easy. Since they're manufactured on a worldwide basis, you can ALWAYS find one with 24h format capability. Just state it as a requirement at purchase, "am/pm-only" format is a show-stopper. Unlike cellphones a watch is primarly for timekeeping, and you have a right to specify your desired format. Nat True, but stores have a right to say that they don't sell that type of watch, in which case you're free to go look for another store. It's just that unless demand for a 24 hour watch is high enough, it may be difficult to locate a store that sells them.
