I feel that this is what we should be using instead of the current illogical time system.

      It is a marketing ploy to sell watches, it was never intended to be logical.

          Swatch Internet Time (or .beat time) is a decimal time system introduced in 1998 by the Swatch corporation as part of their marketing campaign for their line of “.beat” watches.

          I could be wrong, but I’m fairly certain watches existed in 1998.
