How’d you like to be ME? I’m a watchmaker with upward of 50 watches that I have to set and the re-set twice a year. Worse, when I mail out a repaired watch to another time zone, I get a complaint because the customer’s watch isn’t on time when they get it.
When I know what time zone a watch is going to, I “TRY” to remember to set it thus, but when it is THAT day to move up or down an hour, still no good.
Each year, a few people mail their watch back with a letter of complaint. Either that or an upset e-mail.

I have a solar powered watch. My husband has a watch that automatically resets itself. The technology is advancing constantly.
