I’d be ready with my Speedmaster X-33 Gen 1.
Lesson learnt: as outside circumstances can compromise a 6 months run with a mechanical watch, I’ll be going Quartz this time. And should I travel I have the option of a second time zone anyway.
There.
Are we doing this for winter time also? I think it’s a great idea but missed out on the summer time challenge.

Interesting. Although I didn't participate officially (I was a bit late) I did keep a record of my £7 Casio's timekeeping. It was 2 seconds slow 209 days ago and it's now about 5.5 seconds fast. Call it 8 seconds anyway, that's less than 14 secs / year.
I'm about to put it back an hour; I'll set it 4 seconds slow.
Many thanks to Der Amf for running the show this summertime 👏👏👏
Final update for mine.
+17 seconds. Happy with that.
I'll enter a couple of watches this year, definitely my X-33 MK2 quartz and I may try to keep my 126655 going - may be tricky for 6 months though!!
Many thanks to Der Amf for all your hard work in organising this, it was a pleasure. I think the 70 hour power reserve of the black bay saved my bacon on more than 1 occasion!
