Detailed Problem Description

We have two projects (dev/prd)

and serverTimestamp() records:

• correct time in dev project
• INCORRECT time in prd project (about 1 minute ahead)

.info/serverTimeOffset returns:

• small value in dev project
• large value (over 70000) in prd project

Is there a way to fix this large time offset? or shouldn't I trust firebase server timestamp?

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

Since the difference is between two projects, I don't think we could reproduce or examine the problem without looking at the exact projects involved. Obviously you wouldn't want to share the project details here publicly. If you contact Firebase Support (https://firebase.google.com/support) they may be able to look at your exact projects and try to figure out what the difference is between them.
