Timex Group USA has donated a replacement clock (sundial) to the Shakespeare Theatre in Stratford, CT.
The sundial being replaced was originally a gift from the United States Time Corporation, as Timex was then known, in 1956. It has been removed from the side of the building to be rebuilt. The new one is also a gift from Timex and is being built by Global Scenic Services in Bridgeport.
Both the previous sundial and the current one are the only sundials known to be calibrated to Eastern Daylight Saving Time.
