What time do you change your clocks back one hour?
You change the clocks back one hour on November 6, 2011.
What is the difference between mechanical clock and atomic clock?
Atomic clock is faster than mechanical clock and it is the most accurate of all clocks in the world.
Used in the making of atomic clocks that lose one second every 300 years?
Cesium
What reason the atomic clocks used in global positioning system?
For the simple reason that atomic clocks are highly accurate - usually only gaining or losing one second over thousands of years. High accuracy is vital in GPS systems - otherwise the maps would be out of alignment as you travelled. As an example - One of the most recent atomic clocks constructed in 2010 is reckoned to only gain or lose less than a second in over a billion years !
Are there clocks that self set the time?
Any atomic clock will automatically set the time.
Does anyone make atomic wall clocks?

Whats the US atomic clock?
Atomic clocks are in Federal Office of Metrology-Bern-Switzerland, National Physical Laboratory-Teddington-London-United Kingdom and at National Metrology Centre-Singapore. Atomic clocks are also in other countries as well.
How do you find the precision of a clock?
All clocks can be compared for accuracy against the atomic clocks maintained by the US Naval observatory and National Bureau of Standards and (I beleive) the European Space Agency. Atomic clocks are almost more accurate than we can test them to be,
