  • Abstract
    EIGHTY-SIX THOUSAND and four hundred. That´s the magic number: the sum total of seconds in a day. If you have a reasonable mechanical watch on your wrist, you will be accurate to within plus or minus ten seconds. If you have a COSC certified chronometer watch in the category of ´excellent´, you will be within one second.
