GMT IIc Regulation
For some reason, my GMT IIc is only slower when the watch is vertically positioned (12 towards the sky, 6 towards the floor). Both face up, crown up/down are faster.
Does anyone know if this is normal? Or could there be an issue with the hairspring or something? Thanks! |

Positioning can vary, and doesn't have so much of an effect on the current gen of movements. My GMTC runs a tad slow in every position except dial down, it speeds up a bit face down.
I figure as long as there is one position it keeps reasonable time in, no need to have it regulated. The watch has to face in some direction when it's sitting.
