daily second acceptable variance

[MartynJC (UK)]

Following reply from the manufacturer, to which I have highlighted my disappointment. After a week, the loss is 65 seconds


The accurancy you are describing is right on the edge of our tolerance (/-3 /+7 ).

Generally, we regulate the watches rather to be faster than slow. Also, our movements work with a low frequency of only 18.000, not like many others with 28.000. The advante is, that the movement has less wear over the years, the downside is, that the watch is not as accurate as movements with a higher frequency.

Something does not add up.

65sec over 7d is an average of -9s/day which is outside their stated tolerance of -3/+7 - not “on the edge”.

What is puzzling is you started this thread saying it lost 30s/d? What’s changed? As others have said they have had theirs adjusted to within 1 or 2sec. If you are not happy I’d get it regulated/fixed. Good luck. Martyn
