Every watch is more accurate than a dead one. The dead watch is more precise at two, infinitesimally small periods each day.

It’s supposed to be a joke.

Honestly even high end Swiss mechanical watches will gain or lose a couple seconds a day meaning it almost never tell exactly the right time when you think about it. It will always be just a little off, regardless of being able to tell time well enough.
