Normally fueled by ConservationOfDetail (every detail is important. If it didn't matter, you wouldn't tell us). SuperTrope of TimeZonesDoNotExist (time of day is the same in multiple far-apart places when it should logically be zoned) and SisterTrope of UniversalUniverseTime (the rest of the universe follows Earth's time system). Compare RightOnTheTick (the association of important plot events with a specific time). Contrast ClockDiscrepancy (the time of an event doesn't happen at the time it was said). Might be the result of ClockTampering (changing a clock's time for an ulterior motive). Nothing to do with {{Mirror Routine}}s or FearfulSymmetry.

At nine o'clock on the day of the Dueling Tournament, all five synchronize their pocket watches so they can accurately keep track of time. This is important because they are parting ways and each has her own tasks to execute, with most of them depending on the Tournament's schedule.
