In Response To: Seamaster Pro Graining Time ()

: I have a Seamaster Pro that is coming up to
: three years old. I have had no problems with
: it, except...

: Last night I noticed that it was showing a time
: ten minutes faster than my phone, but
: assumed that it was the phone being set
: incorrectly.

: When I looked at the watch this morning, about
: ten hours later, it was running one hour and
: twenty minutes fast.

: I timed one full rotation of the seconds hand,
: and it took a mere 55 seconds.

: Any suggestions?

Sounds like it may be magnetized... Take it to your dealer and ask if they have the means to demagnetize a watch. See if that make a difference.
