To stay up to date with the exact time in France, even with the transition to summer time, it is not necessarily necessary to set the clocks on time, by respecting the invariable rules of the time change. (the hand advances one hour in summer, moves back one hour in winter). Some devices update themselves such as smartphones, tablets, computers, alarm clocks, decoders, watches, but also the clocks of certain cars and certain household appliances, provided they are “intelligent”, in other words “connected”. For all that is analog, on the other hand, it is necessary to act.
