Junghans is already a master of radio-controlled watches and clocks and the new Meister MEGA relies on receiving time signals from radio transmitters situated on three continents (DCF77 in Mainflingen, Germany; MSF in Anthorn, UK; JJY40 in Fukushima, Japan; JY60 in Kyushu, Japan; and WWVB in Fort Collins, USA). The position of the seconds hand – which moves around the dial in half-second steps – is measured against received time information 1,440 times per day and adjusted when necessary. The transmitters have a deviation of just 0.006 seconds in one million years and the Meister MEGA itself, a maximum deviation of 0.02 seconds in radio-controlled mode. If there is no reception in an area, the watch runs automatically with an impressive accuracy of eight seconds a year.
