It seems most watches have that kind of accuracy. (I've googled Rolex and Tag Heuer which seems to be the top watches for Chronometers certified watches)

But for 20k you'd expect some sorta nuclear atomic reactor for it to be super accurate. And of course, also have a utility knife, spare wife, and Tabasco sauce backup compartment.

your $20 quartz timex is probably more accurate than any high-end mechanical watches. http://www.chronocentric.com/watches/accuracy.shtml#moreaccurate[^]

But with a Rolex people know you have more money than sense. They won't with a Seiko.

It's also close to the physical limits for a clock that size, I'm told. I fail to find a reference at the moment.

I have a Seiko self-winding watch that gains or loses 5 minutes a day. Forty years ago, you had self-winding watches that wound their springs with any inadvertent movement of the wrist. And they kept perfect time. I have been told to pick up my watch with my right hand and shake it violently 12-16 times and for good measure wind the spring up with an equal number of turns. If I do that, the watch gains maybe a minute or two a day as opposed to losing several minutes a day. To think that it cost $600! A $10 electronic watch keeps better time than this crap! And this piece of sh!t has 31 days in a month as the standard. So I have to manually adjust the date 5 times a year too! Somebody ought to teach the Japanese that old rhyme: Thirty days hath September April, June and November ........

and it is still only accurate to -2 to +4 seconds, per day! For that money I want an atomic clock!
You can get one for about $100. A watch that synchronises itself to the radio signal broadcast by the various atomic clocks of the world. A small desktop version can be had for under $30.

...and every time you look at it, you think "It's 14:32, and I could have bought a Rolex instead"... :sigh:

I did. About 20 years ago I won £1,500 and so bought myself a *Rolex Oyster Date*. Apart from the times its been serviced I've worn it every day since and only take it off if I'm doing particularly mucky work such as working on the old car.
