Dude, it is an amazing watch. The electronic mechanism is truly a technologic marvel.

It gets GPS atomic clock accuracy within a matter of seconds. There is so much good about this watch that you really need to study it to appreciate its qualities.

Casio radio controlled watch cross checked against a radio controlled wall clock (all £15 worth!). I am a horologist who requires spot accuracy for mechanical clock adjustments on a day to day basis. I find this system more convenient than computer clocks which can be unstable.

I use the watchville app as 'atomic clock'.

What's your Atomic Clock?

Another vote for the watchville app here
Also have a g-shock I use while golfing that syncs with atomic time so check to that also.

I have this Citizen perpetual date, radio controlled AT watch, and it reliably syncs every night to the exact second.

I set all my mechanicals to it. It's a damn good looking watch and I occasionally wear it, it is 200mWR, has a sapphire crystal with the best AR I have seen on any watch.

Comfortably bracelet, the only negative is the rather flimsy clasp.

I use the Casio Waveceptor Hybrid watch. Sets automatically via GPS or Radio signals.
This is my reference for setting my other mechanical watches.
