[time-nuts] Question for the cesium nuts.

[bg at lysator.liu.se]

It exists the same way many old cesiums exists. I think Nikon still
supports the line with spares and support. No new units produced. Killed
in the high end now by UW-housed DSLRs and inte the low end by UW-housed
compact digital cameras. Nikon never made a digital Nikonos.
