Re: Self regulating

In Response To: What is required in regulating a watch? ()

I took my watch (2599.80.00) into Swatch Canada/Toronto for regulating. They didn't even ask for my warranty card or proof of sale. They had the watch for 2 weeks, returned it with a print out of it's tendancies to gain or lose depending on the resting position. Since January 1st, I have never been more than 2 seconds out either way and I use the print out to rest my watch in a particular position at night depending on whether it's fast or slow. I'm presently at +.5 secs after more than two weeks. I'm "getting to know" my watch better and in the past week I've never been more that 1 second out. Does anyone else "self regulate" their watch this way? I can't see myself ever "adjusting" my time using the crown again.
