It's hard to really find the right words for that item.

If you set the clock slightly ahead then you could say...

"Pentax is always slightly ahead"

But whenever you change time, you'll ruin your roll of film.

i think it would look better in an older pentax body. Those actually look very nice.

I just don't need that many clocks.

This isn't a Pentax but if you've got a 645 that is fubar and a lens eat up with fungus, here's a good little project.

Wire it so when the alarm goes off the flash pops up and fires on red eye setting.
