I got my watch back after having the time regulated (was losing 5 secs/day after being repaired)I was able to observe the technicians work area and saw some really neat machines! They put my watch on an electronic device with an articulating arm that rotated it automatically into different positions while presumably taking readings via an oscilliscope type of screen. The bonus of it was they gave me a printed copy of this "machines" findings that indicated tendencies of the watch depending on what position it was left in ie: face up +5', side crown up -1' etc. I've been using this info to keep my watch pretty much bang on with an atomic clock. Also interesting was the finding that with the chronograph running it affected the time approx. -1' and with it stopped +1'. That info alone made the 2 wk repair time worth it! Just thought some might find that kind of interesting...
