Accrotime is a manufacturer of quartz crystal watches. Accrotime researchers have shown that the watches have an average life of 26 months before certain electronic components deteriorate, causing the watch to become unreliable. The standard deviation of watch lifetimes is 7 months, and the distribution of lifetimes is normal.
