Btw after posting this message, I came across this website www.worldtimeserver.com which shows real time of all countries. that means no need for conversion if obtaining time from www.time.gov. They even have a atomic clock sychrno freeware which logs into their servers and show the true time. Check it out maybe its good. One more thing... since I am breaking in my watch at the moment... how did you guys check for accuracy like checking three times a day or placing the watch in different posistions or something like that? since sychronization with the atomic clock, My watch has gained 5 secs i think... its only 2 days old... is it a bad sign? At which mean value (+ / -) should I then consider to send it for servicing?
