Puzzle 5

I was recently given a new watch for my birthday.

However, as usual with my presents, it was quite useless as it loses 6 minutes every hour.

I set it using my friend's accurate watch at midnight, and it now shows 10:39am.

I know that the watch stopped 21 minutes ago, so what is the correct time now?
