Oh, thank goodness... not just me then. I was putting it down to me slowly going bonkers, but then again that might also be the case.... Or it could be that we're all going bonkers :lol: :lol:

I have a theory. It’s what you do early in the morning when you’re a bit bleary around the old mince pies, and you’re not setting your watch to the top of the hour or a half or quarter. Thinking back I was probably setting mine to something like 0622 and, looking at the RC analogue alarm, went to 0627 instead.

I don’t think I’ve ever done it when setting a watch by time.is.
