Ain't technology great? You can wake up in the morning, look at your watch, and still not be confident on what time it is :^D

Maybe you're wearing it wrong.

But if you see the sync indication, you can be very confident of what time it is.

No, my watch did not sync last night, and I could only get 1 bar on the strength indicator early this morning.

If the battery is going bad it may not have enough energy for reception.

What if they made a watch where you just add a few drops of piss once a week and it uses the electrolytes for power?

Or on the not so gross/biohazard side. Have small zinc and copper probes in the watch and just add lime or lemon juice every so often.

I've often wondered how those kinetic watches fare.

Curious if anyone else having any problems or previous did with their watch receiving a time update. Been about a month and a half since my last receipt, which wouldn't be that be except for that DST thing has thrown my time off.

Anyone have any good suggestions?

Do you work in a field that requires precision timekeeping?

I put mine in a north facing window every night and it always updates.

Looks like my watch gave me an april fools surprise, finally got an updated signal on 4/1.

It's solar charged and shows at max on the indicator.

Mine synced on 4/3 at 5:04AM. My battery is very old and never shows more than 2 of 3 bars.
