Hi Mike,

A watch that runs consistantly 10 seconds fast each day has precision - how close the measured values are to each other value.

A watch that runs 0 seconds +/- each day is accurate - how close the measured value is to the true value.

Hi precision/low accuracy - hi precision/high accuracy - hi accuracy/low precision.
