I use my GPS, I suppose that's the same as http://www.time.gov/ in the long run.

has anyone checked our clock up top of the screen, I think it is running about 10 seconds slow when I compared it to time.gov. But we have a clock here for testing purposes. Have fun and don't forget a Rolex must be tested in all 5 pos(?) (I think it is to truly understand if it is losing or gaining time when it's over and done with and averaged out)
