Sure at every computational system you need a clock. Bitcoin tick clock as widely published started at unix epoch time
block.nTime=1231006505

My question is ..
I need to adapt a legacy system prior to unix epoch
is this script is ok? (I need a peer review)
Code:
#using Power$hell
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
$stopwatch = New-Object System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch
$stopwatch.Start()
$stopwatch.Stop()
$stopwatch
[Math]::Round((Get-Date).ToFileTimeUTC()/10000)
[Math]::Round((Get-Date).ToFileTime() / 10000000 - 11644473600)
<#
Where 11644473600 is the number of elapsed seconds between the
Microsoft epoch (January 1, 1601 A.D. (C.E.)) and the Unix epoch
(January 1, 1970, 12AM UTC/GMT)
