Abstract: A monitoring device, such as a watch, for monitoring, at a remote location, movements and activities of a person, the device is worn around the wrist of the person being monitored, the device comprising, a housing, a strap connected to the housing for fastening the device around the wrist of the person being monitored, a tamper sensor for detecting tampering with or the removal of the device from the person's wrist. It further includes electronic circuitry enclosed within the housing. The circuitry includes a microprocessor and a memory device for receiving and processing data and a transmitter for periodically transmitting data to a remote location and a time display, coupled to a clock mechanism, mounted in the housing so as to be displayed at the front face of the housing.
