Knowing the exact time is not an end in itself and not only helps to get the train on time. Many modern technologies such as GPS navigation and fiber optic data transmission would be impossible without high-precision clocks.
Read here how atomic clocks work, how exactly they display the time and how we benefit from them.
With a radio-controlled watch you are always abreast of the times.
It allows for keeping up with the exact time, without annoying readjust, missed appointments and time change hassle:
Radio clocks do exactly what you would expect from a watch. On top of that they are a nifty companion for all occasions.
With Uhrzeit.org you are guaranteed to find the perfect radio-controlled watch for your style.
For utilizing the exact time at some distance to the next atomic clock - e.g. by our radio clocks - the information has to be transmitted in a suitable form over long distances. This is mainly done by time signal transmitters such as the German long-wave transmitter DCF77.
Here is an overview of the most important time signal transmitters, where they are located and how they are received.
Smartwatches are currently conquering the watch market at all levels. Be it as a help for a sporty everyday life, as a useful outdoor utensil for adventure seekers or as a fashionable companion that enhances any outfit - and of course to always display the accurate time.
A small introduction to the watch world 2.0
The clocks will be set 1 hour forward, so the night is 1 hour shorter. The time then changes from standard time to daylight savings time .
More information on daylight saving time is found here.
Next to smart watches GPS world time watches are the outstanding technical innovation on the watch market in recent years. They determine the position by means of GPS signals and can thus specify the exact local time of day anywhere in the world - independent of time signal transmitters.
