Default 3IS Analog Clock Slow for anyone?

I like to set the time on my clock 10 minutes ahead, I've set the time this way on the clock ever since I got the car. However, recently I've noticed that when I compare the time to my watch or my phone, it's sometimes only 5 or 7 minutes faster.. and i'll have to adjust the clock ahead a few minutes to make it 10 minutes fast again. I've done this about 2 or 3 times already over the past couple months.

Does that mean the analog clock on the 3IS is running a bit slow? Does anyone else have this issue? Anyone have any suggestions? I'm the only one who drives my car..

Thanks.

I have noticed this as well, and had to readjust my clock a few times. The problem seems to have disappeared now though, strange.

Mine has no problem at all, and I set mine 5 minutes faster than the actual time.

Dealer disconnect the battery while working on it perhaps?

My analog clock on my 2013 GS is too fast. Maybe adds a minute for every hour. Is it worth getting fixed? It's under warranty so why not right? It gets annoying having to adjust every few hours.

The IS analog clock isn't that accurate. It's suck that Lexus didn't have it GPS link or at least link it to their Safety Connect system.
