Abstract

A duplex container is constructed to allow the recording and measuring of time or other parameters by means of indices and associated surrounding moveable, adjustable elastomeric marker bands that are on and hold to the outer surface of the outer container. The outer container can hold an inner container that may be of similar shape.
