1399221 2015-04-28 01:15:00 ..... the gain is about an hour...

over what period of time, a day, a week, a year ?

Simple answer, buy a better clock.
Simple answer 2, daylight savings.

1399222 2015-04-28 01:19:00 Could be you have a major electrical fault in your place, I would get a registered electrician in to check everything out for you. It might not be cheap but its cheaper than having an electrical fire. gary67 (56)
1399223 2015-04-28 01:37:00 Talking about watches, do you realise these should be serviced regularly, say about every 5 to 7 years? Most people wear them until they stop, by which time there is no lubricating oil left an any of the bearings. And this applies whatever sort of watch you have, from Swatch to Patek Philippe.

1399224 2015-04-28 03:05:00 that's what I was thinking... but need to find an electrician that knows what they are doing that is why I am trying to get hold of Beemer... oh and 1101 it gains an hour a day Ruralkiwichik (17361)

I would agree, if you clock is more than 10 secs out I would get house re-wired.

1399226 2015-04-28 07:27:00 Or, borrow another clock and see if it works ok. Then throw yours away and buy a new one. Unless it's something fancy they are pretty cheap. dugimodo (138)

She said the same socket fried a tablet computer so it seems there could be a major fault in the house wiring

1399228 2015-04-28 10:12:00 OK, I want a new clock alarm radio with snooze and an headphone plug to replace SWMBO's old one. It has a noisy transformer after being dropped off the bedside table.

She has always had problems sleeping so just reaches out and whacks the snooze button and listens to TalkBack radio via an under pillow small speaker, then dozes off again.

I can't find one anywhere so thought I would ask you all for help.
