TSC Watch List

I blam- …I mean, I thank genetics.

Really enjoying the “Japanese” style of wearing the band the opposite way for presentation. It took about a half day to get used to but isn’t as annoying as I thought it might be.

Anyone have a Cliff notes version of the ways to regulate watch accuracy? Was there something in how it’s put down overnight? Or is it only done through spring adjustment?

Cliff notes is an adjustment. You can get a watch timegrapher and measure the accuracy in different positions and put it down in the most accurate position. I just figure there are cell phones if you need to know EXACTLY what time it is and you can manually adjust your watch once a week or so if you're a minute or two off.
 
Spring adjustment but watch it over a 30-day period before making any adjustments you can use this site for measurements and factor your device anomaly as well.


Gravity has a very minimal effect as movements are designed to offset no matter which way you lay it down. a single watch winder also will help, just make sure it has a rest period timer as well.. Also you do not have to worry about which way the winder goes, modern movements including the one you have are multi-directional as far as the rotor is concerned

As a follow up of you are wearing everyday then a watch wonder is really not needed or warranted
 
Now that’s a bargain.

I thought it wasn't too bad for a buck. I had a multi pack of different batteries that did have the correct size so I just did a DIY battery replacement. the multi pack of batteries was 2 dollars for like 20 different size batteries and this watch takes 3 batteries...

There are plenty of apps out there that you set the watch on the microphone and it will check it for accuracy.. They seem to work fairly well in place of a Timegrapher
