The story of Snack O'Clock

Snack O'Clock looked just like the digital watches everybody wanted, except the time was always 3:15 and the band was made of candy. You ate it one disc at a time, counting down to the bell. By the end of the day you had a sticker on a string, and you still checked it whenever a teacher asked the time.

Fun fact

The face always read 3:15 because that was the exact moment school let out, according to the wrapper.
