There are radio controlled clocks which theoretically shouldn't be wrong. At least as long as there isn't a battery or motor issue...

How do you tell whether you’re looking at a radio-controlled clock though?

Sometimes they have it written on the clockface. I don't think that's a general rule though.

In the same way there are digital clocks that can be wrong too though.

How would you tell you're looking at a synchronized digital clock or cheap battery model?
