Standard clock - hyojundokei

Japanese: 標準時計 - ひょうじゅんどけい
Standard clock - hyojundokei
A highly accurate clock that serves as the standard for time. It has the significance of being a prototype. It developed from a highly accurate pendulum clock that was used to adjust the daily difference when manufacturing or repairing clocks in the 17th century. With the advent of quartz clocks, the accuracy became 1 to 0.1 microseconds per day, and furthermore, atomic clocks have an error of 1 second every tens of thousands of years.
