Body Temperature??

Hello Everybody!!

Does anyone know or have heard of "body temp"
effecting the watch and it's movement?
When I wear my James Bond, as I call it; runs
fast. When it is off my wrist it seems to run
at a better pase. I have had the watch since 08/03
and it still has not settled down. It is always
running 12 to 15 sec's fast per day.
My wife says I am a furnace, never cold and can go
out in my t-shirt in -25C weather.
To get the watch looked at I would have to send it to Toronto from Calgary. That is 3 weeks away from my wrist. One Jeweller told me that it may not evan do the trick. He says he has heard of people's magnetic aura effecting quartz watches, by draining the batterry after wearing it one day.
Any replys would be helpful.

Jerry
