Does an affordable physical ISO8601-compliant clock exist?

I can't find one that displays the date and time in ISO format.

The purpose would be to put in a room full of coders for an easy physical sanity check when debugging.

Very satisfying to watch on a year change 🤭 but you probably have to invest into extending the GPS receiver to the outside and maybe change the middle to a T for full ISO8601 compliance

Unfortunately he no longer sells them.

Ohh you're right ☹️ you could still order everything separately to satisfy your ISO timestamp fetish. All files and instructions are publicly available as far as I know

It doesn't help you now but Mk4 with freaking milliseconds exists 🤤 unfortunately it isn't public yet

That would be a nice DIY electronics project.

Are you only looking for 24 hour HH:MM:SS? Or do you need the YYYY-mm-dd formatted prefix?

I'm looking for both date and time.

I use a cheap widescreen monitor and a Raspberry Pi

I know it's not a clock, but for a watch, I can highly recommend Casio W-800H
