Erratic time

Hi,

I have a Co-axial bond series watch. I have had it for approx 18 months from new, it is still under warranty. I have noticed that the time keeping has become a bit perculiar.

When I first got it it used to put on about 2 secs per day on the wrist, I was happy with that.

A few mnonths laters it swung to losing 2 secs per day. OK.

NoW it is losing 6 secs on the wrist between say 7.30 am and 10 pm. I have also noticed that if i leave it face down over night it can sometimes gain 10 secs or not gain any time at all, there seems to be no consistency at all with this.

I wonder if anyone who knows a lot about these watches could give me their opinion on this.

Best regards,

Henry
