Odd losses of time...

In Response To: Seamaster GMT ()

: 1) I keep loosing a whole hour to the second,
: it's happened twice so far.

The fact that it is EXACTLY an hour off on two occasions seems to indicate that you might be accidentally missetting it. That has happened to me a couple of times--confusing 4:30 with 5:30 or something like that. Then later, I see the watch is exactly one hour off and wondered how it got that way.

It is almost inconceivable that there is something wrong with TWO of those watches that would cause them to stop for EXACTLY one hour then restart. Or to run slowly enough to lose a whole hour, yet you not notice it being off correct time until it is exactly one hour behind.
