I guess it depends on the situation you "inject" yourself into. Except 
for the two limitations I love that watch. In the case of ANY watch I 
will want WWVB accuracy like my present watch. Where I work the time 
clocks are with "hundreths" and self-calibrate with an atomic clock in 
Kentucky. I provide a countdown like NASA at the end of a workday.
