what kind of watch is it?
because there are watches out which rely on kenetic energy to power the watch. but if they arent being used they go dorment, and once "woken up" they set themselves to the correct time.
it may just have a base time prorammed in like Grenich Mean time +/-)hrs.
just a thought |

| Now, from Ottawa, the National Research Council time signal. The beginning of the long dash, following ten seconds of silence, indicates exactly 13:00. |
