Funny thing is that there are more clock meters there.

I have used a meter which had a clock on it and I have to say, it was the only good thing about it.

For example - continuity didn't beep - it played a tune. It took between 3 - 5 seconds before the tune started  :wtf:

Silly Americans and their silly time notation. ;D

I wouldn't even trust a DT830 to keep time properly.

Has anyone else noticed there's no "off" position?  Is that what the clock position is?  :-DD

No worries, though.  They'll probably get sued for using a "Fluke yellow" bezel, and they'll at least have to redesign that ugly front panel.

As long as it keeps flashing 19:00 it will be right once a day......if they went  for 12:00 it would be twice as accurate.
