+1 on the G Shock Solar Atomic. *Last watch I'll ever buy, I suspect.

I DON'T want a watch or clock that sets itself.

What I meant by that question was, although most people can navigate
the buttons to set the watch, but they don't have access to an
accurate time source. I was alarmed by the spread at work, with
hourly beeps starting 6 minutes before the hour and some coming 2, 4,
or 5 minutes after the hour. Where DO people get their time?
