Most crystals are +/- 0.005% tolerance or better at 20 degrees C.
0.005% over 70 minutes is about a quarter of a second.

You forgot the percent sign (an easy mistake). It would actually be a
bit
over 0.002 seconds.


Hmm

calculator says:

0.005/100 * 70 * 60 = 0.21

or

70*60 = 4200

4200/100 = 42

42 * 0.005 = 0.210

where did I go wrong?
