Equation of time

Equation of time

Is a complication that illustrates the difference between mean solar time (average time) and true solar time based on the position of the sun. This difference occurs because the Earth's orbit around the sun is slightly elliptical, resulting in varying lengths of days throughout the year. Watches equipped with this function display the offset between mean time and solar time, allowing users to adjust their watches accordingly.
