Could another country declare that their time is what all watches should be set by??
I am glad it is us (UK) but there is no reason why another country couldn’t say it. Accurist sponsors our talking clock-what is stopping Nike sponsoring… Hobart in Tasmania or Cape of Good Hope or anywhere!?! It would still be the same time no matter where you are, but woud the speaking clock in other countries say, sponsored by adidas in Germany, or Victorinox in Switzerland (they know a lot about clocks) or Tibet,…well, time is just a concept of 8…33… and 40 seconds… beep beep beep.
Seriously though, is it possible for England to lose the worlds time?
Nike also make wedding suits and basketball trainers.
Yes I have, AJ- that is my point.
I kid at school got his head kicked in for being thick. Got a brother?
Thank you, John-top answer, but could other companies say 6am GMT but 7 in Spain? I didn’t realise that is was a simple question that people were going to be rude about because they don’t know.
Didn’t you know that…
On 1 January 1972, GMT was replaced as the international time reference by Coordinated Universal Time, maintained by an ensemble of atomic clocks around the world.
Universal Time (UT) is a timescale based on the rotation of the Earth which is practically proportional to the sidereal time. It is a modern continuation of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), i.e., the mean solar time on the meridian of Greenwich which is the conventional zero meridian for geographic longitude.
So, in effect, the UK is not declaring anything to anyone about measuring time. It’s more to do with the 0 meridian that has been set a long time ago and which is convenient to use as it is.
