Okay i am not that good at it, i can guess time with an average error of around +/- an hour or so, yeah but sometimes i can get accuracy upto 30 or sometimes even upto 15 minutes!
but happens once in a while... hmm what about you, can you guess the time just by looking outside and not actually cheating by looking at your watches
... what is your average accuracy?
i have a friend who is pretty accurate most of the time with a plus minus of 20 mins, he is adventurous and likes traveling a lot, maybe that is why he is good at it... so what about you?

Hi voldrox,
Earlier people used to say the accurate time by looking on shadows/shades of the trees. They might be very observant on the same and easily predict the time accurately. I am not at all prefect especially after relocating to Delhi. In summer you may think that at 7.PM it is only 3 or 4 in winter at 7PM you may think it is 8 or 8.30. If I am in native I can predict even though it won’t accurate.

Hi Sreekala how are you ?
i am doing fine and hope you are too... yes people earlier were much better at it, they used sundial and all and yeah observing trees and their shadows as well... but the watch now has taken that observing sense away from us, now we see time on our cell phone and watch and we get to know the time pretty easily, i wonder how well will people do in their everyday lives without their watches or cell phones... thank you for sharing Sreekala, have a nice day!
