In Response To: Slowing Down... Help!!! ()

Yes, I know the feeling. My Constellation suddenly went from -1.7 secs/day to +5.1 secs/day. I have no idea why.

: It's been almost two years since I have bought
: my Seamaster automatic, which I wear daily.

: The watch has been running fast (about plus 4
: seconds per day for the first six months and
: about plus 3 seconds per day for the year
: afterwards).

: Now, all of a sudden (for the past month
: approximately), the watch runs 2 seconds
: slow per day, which I find more
: disconcerting that the 4 seconds fast it
: used to run.

: What gives? What can cause the watch to have
: slowed down this much in so little time???
: All of a sudden, a watch that was running
: fast is running not only "not as
: fast", but slow...

: Thanks for advice on this.

: Best,

: Claude
