I think you're being a bit hard on yourself. With my mechanicals, I enjoy finding out about their behaviours in different positions and using this information for a sort of "ambient regulation" to keep them in good time.

My DW-5600-HR is now +9 seconds.
7 weeks to the day for the Megaquartz, seeming pretty consistent which I guess no surprise for a quartz. +7 seconds so seems to gain 1 second per week, not bad at all for one of the very earliest quartz watches.

Leaderboard updated - and sad to see the loss of a couple of heavy hitters this week. As we’re ~25% through, I’ll leave the current leaderboard here for posterity (the leaderboard in the OP will continue to be updated weekly):

^remember, yellow cells show data that needs updating from entrants.
Many thanks to everyone for their participation and dedication this far... I’m enjoying seeing how all these great watches are performing [emoji106]
+32s.

Both computer and watch are mid-second. :)

On Thursday, it will have been running nonstop for 60 days, and worn for 50 of them, but over the bank holiday weekend, it'll probably run down, as I fancy wearing a couple of my vintage watches whilst doing nothing.
I'll do a screenshot next time... but the Seiko 7A38 is still a steady 0.5s out over the duration of this test so far. :eagerness:
Apologies for the delay. Still on for the wooden spoon:

I make that 19.5 seconds fast.

Can’t believe we’re now 1/4 through!
I’ll update the board again on Sunday :)
Seems to be gaining a little bit in the warmer weather. Now at +3 seconds to date. Still looking remarkably consistent as far as I am able to tell though.

And here my Presage bows out - I'm not going to be wearing it over the next four days, so the PR will run out on Sunday morning. But, left dial up, at some point tomorrow morning, it will have caught up the 8 seconds it's missing [emoji2]

I didn't think I would keep the watch running for the whole BST period, anyway, and I'm very glad to have proved to myself that every time I wear this for a decent period the accuracy will be good enough for me to trust it without checking up on it.
I before BST began, I had already been wearing it for six days, during which time it was +3 seconds. So, net loss: 5 seconds over 60 days. MRSP: £599.
So, yesterday I wore it for an hour or so, as I needed a bracelet whilst getting some exercise, and this morning I idly see what time it's at and....

....and I feel a change in my plans for today looming! [emoji1]
Edit: Two days later...

While the 9f seiko continues to run without even 0.1s deviation...

I’ll update the leaderboard again this evening. It’s very pleasing to see the Pressage still there [emoji3060]

Two months in and this G is now +11s.
Thanks JGJG for keeping the scores!

Warmer weather has kept the good old 7A38 runnning ahead of itself... we're now on a respectable +1s over the duration of the test.

Leaderboard updated!
No WiFi at the moment so can't take a photo and be looking at time.is simultaneously, but today:
60 days, -5 seconds
The G is now at +3 with the warmer weather
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...682c3031c4.jpg
But the GS is still spot on

I’ll update the board later today [emoji106]
Thanks JGJG - another +1 for my DW5600-HR this week, so now at +12.
Yes I know, annoying isn't it. However the aircon in the Clio would seem to be doing the business and it's hanging on to +3s, albeit only just.

I’m not sure which way it’s tending at the moment, it’s had a reasonable amount of wear over the last couple of weeks. I suspect in reality in around +2/3 sec, given the accuracy in setting - but a one second gain in just over two months is pretty amazing.

I’ll do the board this evening... keep the updates coming :)
MegaQuartz reporting in. After exactly 10 weeks, +12 seconds.

Tick tock tick tock.. still spot on.

Just +1.5s over the duration of the test so far for my 7a38-7070 :eagerness:

Now at +14s but still within the Casio spec for one month, although we're at two and a bit. :)
Leaderboard updated, many thanks to everyone for the latest updates.
10 weeks in, we have 17 plucky watches charging through... particular kudos to the two mechanicals that have been ticking away throughout [emoji106]
JGJG what's the module in your GShock and are you wearing it for the test? Yours is behaving splendidly.
