Re: Dead On Accurate
In Response To: Dead On Accurate ()

Guess it depends on how you wear it?

Have been monitoring my new constellation for the past 5 days. It keeps time during the day. It gains about 1 sec at night (occasionally 2sec) when I don't wear it. This is for the watch in a dial up position at night.

However, there was one night where I place it crown up, iI found that it lost 2 secs during the night !

So in the span of 5 days, it has gained abt 2 secs so far.

: Just recieved a used GMT SM Chronometer last
: tuesday bought it on TZ. I set Time to
: Atomic Clock on Thursday and I just checked
: it. My watch is only 2 sec slow! Is that
: even possible? But it must be true. I own a
: rolex Explorer and even after service it
: gains about 4 +/- sec per day. What are your
: experiences with accuracy?
