Thread: Greenwich mean time (greenwichmeantime.com)

  1. #1

    Greenwich mean time (greenwichmeantime.com)

    I 've been checking my watches and clocks against this GMT clock for months and this morning, when the first check was made, it (the online clock) was running fast by over one minute and showing errors on loading initially.

    Moving to a different PC briefly had the same error result. Sorry I don't remember the error number.

    It seems to be ok now, so it could have been my computer or router throwing a brief wobbly or their servers. I was hopping mad for half a minute thinking,
    "How dare their servers show incorrect time and cause me to question my settings,"

    If someone could please check greenwichmeantime.com, that would be most helpful.

    (Did they change from .co.uk over to .com years ago ?)

    How about using https://time.is/ instead?

    Yes time.is is bookmarked and so is timeanddate.com


    The greenwichmeantime clock had become the goto online standard for me lately. The time.is display is large and easy to read.

    I normally use the Time function on the Watchville app for setting my watches. It claims to be 'atomic time synchronised', but I have my doubts.

    What's the best app for a reliably accurate time reference?

    Aren’t all phones GPS synchronised nowadays ?
    My iPhone is always smack on with the Radio4 pips.
