Expect the same here. I believe they are not guaranteed for accuracy... from Apple:

"Because of the various input sources a typical run loop manages, the effective resolution of the time interval for a timer is limited to on the order of 50-100 milliseconds."


Basically, it's up to you. Timers "fire" on a run loop on a particular thread. Your timers will be affected by work scheduled on that run loop / thread. If you schedule your timers on an idle run loop / thread, I think that you'll find that they're reasonably precise - All depending on your requirements, of course.
