a truly digital clock: about/why

dig·i·tal Etymology: Latin digitalis
1 : of or relating to the fingers or toes
2 : done with a finger [...]   [M-W]
clock Etymology: Middle Dutch clocke bell, clock [...]
1 : a device [...] for indicating or measuring time
commonly by means of hands moving [...]   [M-W]


As you can see from the quote above, the word "digital"
is derived from the latin word for "finger".
Despite this elementary fact, I never saw a truly digital clock yet.
This website fills this gap.
