A new quartz watch, "Step Melody", has been developed. The second hand of this clock swings to and fro with a melody produced in the watch. The melody is made during the period of musical notes, while the motor to make swing the second hand is driven during the period of rests. Thus, an epoch-making watch breaking out from convention only to tell time, which make people enjoy time swinging with melody has been developed. This paper describes the construction and the operation of this watch.
