OMG - will the waranty cover this?

I was setting my gmt IIc using an atomic clock two weeks ago, and now it's two seconds late!

Will the waranty cover this?




It's just an amazing watch

Maybe. Did you get a COSW certificate with it? (Certified +/- One Second / Week)

Not sure. What does the warranty certificate on your atomic clock say?

Not a warranty issue, just a simple regulation.

No really, a good independent watchmaker should easily be able to get your Rolex to outperform the atomic clock, I don't mean any atomic clock, I mean the atomic clock.
