I have no doubt that this watch shows the exact time. But at night it doesn't help me much. Since I can't see the hands, even with the Indiglo function, I have no idea what numbers they're pointing to. The color of the metal used for the hands was a ridiculous choice and had to be tested by someone wearing them at night. This item would never have gone into production. During the day my phone or computer tells me the time, but I need it in the evening and at night. So I bought this Timex from Indiglo. I had to invest in an hourglass and some sand for them.
