Article deals with the technical aspects of time synchronization in modern society. Specifically, the introduction of clock networks in Czechoslovakia, their technological dimension in relation to the post-war production program of the national company Elektročas. It, as the heir to the czechoslovak company Jednotný čas, took over the technical documentation of the German company Normalzeit after the war, and by obtaining the design templates for the components of the unified time systems, established the technical foundations of its own production program. Later, using this "heritage",it became the leading European manufacturer of cock networks. The key topic of this text is the question of the gain of technology and its development in the specific conditions of the socialist establishment into the products of the unified time system, which in their meaning exceeded the horizon of simple technical artefacts and became symbols of the time and lifestyle of modern man.
