There is no problem with my watch keeping accurate time. It is the Sharp   
Atomic Watch. Nightly it adjusts its time setting with the time   
calibration signal (WWVB) transmitted from the National Institute of   
Standards and Technology from Fort Collins Colorado. Perfect time every   
day. The watch also keeps very accurate time during day between the time   
adjustments. I have never found it to off a second.  
 
My wife got it at Frys for either $30 or $60 last year.
