Re: Absolutely Not.....
In Response To: Re: Absolutely Not..... ()

Thanks for the reply. I do want to ensure that I'm doing everything I should to keep the watch running properly before I send it back for an exchange or to have it regulated, so if you think I'm missing anything please let me know. I have worn the watch every day since receiving it, but I have not been winding the watch manually on a daily basis; is this something I should be doing? I've been working on the assumption that because it is an automatic I do not need to wind it manually so long as it is still running. I've also been assuming that because the watch is fast the problem is not due to a lack of winding.

I wound and reset it last night before going to bed, when I got up this morning it was +3 seconds, as of this moment its about +5 seconds.

Thanks again.
