Van Gent cites many sources for Amsterdam time (mostly in Dutch) here:
https://webspace.science.uu.nl/~gent0113/wettijd/wt_text6b.htm
Many of his sources are contemporaneous. It's an impressive list.
Although it's not clear whether the ".32.13" is van Gent's calculation
or is copied verbatim from one of those sources, it's surely close to
the correct value insofar as that can be determined.
