So I'm not an expert, but this behavior actually would behave differently in different gravity wells. Due to relativity, while you would observe a cesium clock

So I'm not an expert, but this behavior actually would behave differently in different gravity wells. Due to relativity, while you would observe a cesium clock working normally on the moon, your Earth buddy would disagree with your clock because the buddy would be down in a larger gravity well.
