[phil6605]

i have several clocks and watches that operate on the atomic time signal...............will they display 29th february or will it be a manual rewind back from march 1st..........anyone know as this is the first time i have encountered a leap year with these instruments

If they sync themselves with the atommic signal then you should have no problem.

If they automatically went back 1 hour on 28 October at the end of British Summer Time then they will display 29 February. If not, it will depend whether they 'know' it's 2008.

They should work perfectly fine.

They are fascinating things, make a point of staying up until 2am when the clocks go forward and again when they go back. Even though you are expecting something to happen, it's eerie to see it !
