Re: 1958 Seamaster Timing

In Response To: 1958 Seamaster Timing ()

Hi Mark,
As Sam indicated your watch is suffering from positional error. This means that there is a slight variation in the rotation of your balance which is dependent on the position the watch is in. A competent watchmaker could remedy this. It requires a timing machine and the adjustment of the little screws positioned on the balance wheel.
Since your watch appears to be overall accurate I would leave this alone...
