Current time

Is your clock on time? You can find out here - we show you the current time with the precision of an atomic clock. If you're interested to know how we determine the current time, read on here.

Note: The time shown here can slightly differ from the offical time for technical reasons

How do we determine what time it is?

The time above comes from your own device's clock, so it shows your local time wherever you are - no location lookup required. Your browser also tells us which time zone you're in (for example Europe/London or America/New_York), which is what we display next to the clock.

Your device keeps its clock in sync with internet time servers. Time servers use atomic clocks (via radio) or GPS signals and can be found in universities and other public institutions across the world - that's how you can always see the correct time.

Who sets the official time?

Each country sets its own official time relative to UTC. In the United Kingdom, the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London, is the historic home of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), the basis of today's UTC. More info on this topic on Wikipedia.
