Sounds like we all need to continue to wear a Casio LCD watch, the price of which has been fairly stable since the late 'eighties! Spec. is +/- 30 seconds a month, but in reality is far better. Only problem is i am swiftly getting too long-sighted for the display..

Go for the electro luminescence one, the lesser backlight is no good. Not to be worn when putting up a fence or changing a wheel- the straps aren't up to it.

My bedside LED clock radios have lost a minute since we went to BST, but i don't know if they rely on frequency.
