: I love this watch guys! It took me a little bit
: of time to get use to the incredible wobble
: effect this piece produces, now all is good.

: I've used the stopwatch feature a ton of times
: already (mostly playing around of course),
: and I really REALLY like how all the
: chronograph hands snap back perfectly to
: zero without exception, not even the
: smallest micro-error to one side or another.
: Also, when the chronograph is running, the
: little minute counter snaps to the next
: minute EXACTLY at the point when the second
: hand sweeps past 12 o'clock. Love it!

: In 3 days it has gained just over 2 seconds.

: So now I have 2 Omegas, and keep wanting more.

: My day to day watch is still the incredible
: 2264.50 Seamaster Pro, which I just slipped
: on as I'm typing this. This watch has gained
: about 3/4 of one second in just under one
: month.

: Anyone care to share their experience with your
: speedmaster day-date? Is it normal for the
: chronograph hands to run and and reset so
: perfectly? I was expecting a little bit of
: play to one side or another, but there is
: none. Maybe it will get a little sloppy in
: time?
