[QUOTE=Joearch;4747608]I have had the sme watch as you for a month or so. My watch runs fast by a couple of seconds per day...... not a big deal. My Sub C runs a couple seconds slow a day. I fugure between the two I am right on time. Both watches look and feel amazing!
+/-2 is very much acceptable |

Wear the watch for a few months.
If it gets to running faster than +6, then you can have it regulated under warranty.

Some folks like to make you feel bad for asking about accuracy, but it is a perfectly legitimate question in relation to a quality timepiece, particularly for a new owner.
You naturally want to know what is normal and acceptable and whether you should be concerned. My experience is that there are several factors involved in how your watch is running, including how often and how long it is worn, how it rests, and even possibly the temperature where you live. You need to 'get to know your watch' a bit, and then you will have a better feeling for whether it needs a minor adjustment. There is nothing wrong with monitoring it daily against a reliable time source to get a feeling for how it is operating, but don't stress about it. Lovely watch, good luck.

Enjoy it buddy. As long as it is gaining 6 seconds consistently, I do not see any issues. I would take action when it becomes more than 10 seconds.

I am wearing it for 6 days per week, around 8 or 9 hours a day, basically in the office under normal temp/conditions. It sleeps in the box and hence, there is no abuse here. Accordingly, I do not expect much irregularity. My Sub C is running fast +2 seconds which is very much acceptable. Thanks |
