·This thing is amazing - probably the first major innovation accuracy wise in quartz since the 1970s. While there have been many different HAQ (High accuracy quartz) watches, none of them approach this level of accuracy to my knowledge - the previous best has always been around 5 seconds a year.
When my son was born I decided I needed a watch where I knew what the time was for sure, but I wanted a three hander that was solar powered, Atomic clock radio synced, and no "world time" bezel. This was surprisingly difficult to find for a reasonable price. In the end I picked up two discontinued Casio Oceanus watches - these were made for the American market, but Oceanus didn't do so well over here, as they retailed for around $500 new. Spec wise though they are great - titanium case and bracelet, sapphire crystal, white LED illumination, etc. I wear the blue one on a bracelet probably 80% of the time.
