Atomic radio control clocks are the most
precise time keeping devices in the world. They
keep time to the accuracy of more than 1
second in one million years. Until recently, the
atomic clocks were only found in laboratories
and special institutions and were very large
and expensive. When various governments
began to broadcast atomic, electronically
encoded signals with their own national time,
the accuracy of the atomic radio control clock
became available to the general public. Recent
technology enabled this process to be
miniaturized and to be offered at a reasonable
cost.
The Global Sync takes it one step further. Until
the development of this clock, atomic clocks
were able to receive and decode signals from
only one transmitter. Clocks made to receive
signals in Europe did not work in the USA or vice
versa. A different clock was needed for each
time signal. The Global Sync changed it all.
Besides being functional, compact and of sleek

The transmitted signal is picked up by the radio
receiver in your clock and it is decoded with a
split second precision, to synchronize to the
accurate time. At the same time, the radio
signal automatically sets the calendar function
and for countries adopting daylight savings
and standard time, it adjusts automatically.

The clock uses two CR2450 Lithium button
cells, which are included. To preserve the
battery life during transit and until it reaches
the consumer, the clock is shipped with a
plastic battery saver tag. To activate the clock,
remove the plastic battery saver tag and
numbers will appear on the LCD screen. (Note:
the clock is designed to maximize the battery
life. The activation using fresh, new batteries
will create a shadow effect on the LCD screen.
