Re: Seamaster Losing time?

: Thanks

If winding it to it's max doesn't work, you might also want to take it in to see if it's magnetized. Most watchmakers will demagnify your watch for free and it usually solves most of the wierd changes in accuracy that people get (especially for a watch so new). It also saves them cracking open the case and doing an overhaul.
