My computer has the right time because it is synchronized on the internet by Windows.
But my radio alarm clock is a different story. Every few months, it is wrong by several minutes.
I can see the time on the alarm clock from across the room, but not the time on the PC.
In order to fix the time on my radio alarm clock, I needed a way to see the time on the PC from far away.
So I wrote this program called Big Time.
You can download it too, if you want a clock display program that is really simple and really big.
Simply click "Seconds" on BigTime's menu to turn its display of seconds on or off.
I thought it would be good for lots of people, so I gave it the colors of normal clocks.
It changes color once in a while, and you can make it any size you want on your monitor.
There are some example screen shots below.

The BigTime program displays your computer system's time. So, you will want your PC to be set for
Internet Time Synchronization, before you use BigTime.
Just double click the time at the bottom right of your screen for Window's "Date and Time Properties"
Click the "Internet Time" tab. There you can set synchronization up.
If your computer won't do that, you can always check
Greenwich Mean Time
Click on the Time Zone Maps to get your local time.
From that you can update the time in your computer's "Date and Time Properties" "Date & Time" tab.
