This is not a wall clock but the best all around Digital reaadout clock from the Big Stores like WALMART for me by for has been this one...This has battery back-up and has the self correcting feature. Has large readout and is always correct except when I cross a time zone which will require a new manual time zone setting. My communications type life style I live in requires the 24-hour read modes for my clocks...Being OFF-ROAD here most of this one "really takes a beating and keeps on ticking" as the old infamous saying goes...Here at the home front I use one of those Radio Shack large Digital wall mounted Digital 24-hour dispay that has all of the information you are looking for but again is a Digital Read out. Radio Shack 63-1438... Also hard to find a RADIO SHACK anymore as well. Kinda hard to get all of this information from a standard old clock style faceplace..My other big deal for the RV Trailer was one of those large display Weather Station Panels with digital clock and remote outside sensor made by LA CROSS WS-8015TWC... Very useful to have in the RV...All photos from GOOGLE imagesThe really big issue for us was maintaining the clocks moving in and out of the Time Zones thing... I don't think my wall mounted clock that came with my 5th wheel was meant to be taken down all the time to get corrected haha Finally got all of the RV TRAVELING out of my blood and seem to do most of our RV CAMPING withing a few hundreds miles around the home base here in Northern Neck Virginia now...Roy Ken

I'm not aware of any wall clocks that are GPS equipped to change time zones automatically. So called "atomic clocks" of course, come in a wide variety of styles and shapes and keep the basic time accurate via radio signals, but the time zone is a local setting.

I finally settled for this clock for the MH. large numerals, ez to read and set. most people don't cross into a different time zone all that often and changing time zones on this clock takes about 5-seconds. yeah, it would've been nice to have that done automatically. the kicker is that this clock is battery operated and that was a huge plus for us.

this thread got me to wondering if there's a wrist watch with auto time zone capability. turns out there is...but at a price.

Im guesing every airline pilot needs or have one of those..for me a road traveler simple cell phone tells the time zones just fine..

There are actually two now. I have a watch with a WWVB receiver that relocks itself every night just as any of these other clocks do, but my only reason for having a power hog GPS Rx watch would be nothing but geek factor.

I was thinking the same thing. I guess the OP wants a clock that will do everything, hands-off. I've never seen an analog wall clock with a crystal lens that has day/date nor one that adjusts for Time Zone. Doesn't mean there isn't such a clock but I'd bet it's super-rare.

Another thought is, "why does it have to connect to the atomic timer?".
Are folks stepping outside their RV to shoot locations with a sextant?

Pretty much every clock we have does Daylight Saving Time changes, that's a simple programming issue. Time zone changes on the other hand, require the clock's programming to have an accurate location by some means, most commonly GPS. My cell phone changes zones automatically, but I haven't found any wall clocks that do despite finding some that use GPS time signals for corrections.

Other than a GPS referenced watch or two at around $1000.00, I doubt you will ever find a clock that's auto correcting. How many people move the clock in their house?

The technology between an "atomic" clock and one that sets and corrects itself based on location are completely different technologies.

I want it for the MH.
So far, all mostly I have found, is wal mart grade, chinese plastic, in the same four or five designs everywhere.
i have found a couple that are crystal lens but no day date nor lighted but atomic radio timed

I do not know but I know where to look

The atomic clock feature will keep the time set accurate but will not change when entering a new time zone. That would require a GPS clock with a database installed to recognize the exact location of the time zone boundaries. I don't think such a clock exists. Very low demand for one.

they exist but, as you point out, they are usually accompanied by a GPS device. the clock in our MH's "infotainment" center automatically adjusts to the time zone as does the clock in our 2010 Jeep Liberty. but both of those vehicles also have a built-in GPS system.
