   NO watch is 100% accurate. If you go out enough decimal places it will be   
    off compared to a current standard. Then of course it depends on your   
    relative velocity compared to which standard you choose to compare it to.   
    All impractical for most normal folks as we now apparently agree.   
      
   But to keep this sometimes dead newsgroup alive I appreciate the discussion.   
      
   And I might add that the time on my phone lockscreen is always right...  ;)
