: be more accurate).

: All of the above is just theory though and (I
: don't think) they have been well proven in
: real life. The same COSC standard in
: non-coax applies to coax watches.

I have had my 2254.50 SMP for about 8 months. I wear it most everyday. It is accurate to within 1 second a day. It was a little fast out of the box, but settled down after about a week. If I let it run completely down and rewind, it will run fast for about one day. I could not be more happy with my watch.
