Another newbie question.
Due to total lack of face up / face down adjustment, I'm learning to use the timegrapher in a relative not absolute way to regulate the accuracy.
Instead of regulating to the most accurate S/day face down (which will t…

Continue readingMy 4r36 is currently gaining about 30 sec/ day. That's within spec per Seiko.
But it bugs me being 2 min ahead every few days.
A high end watch has tighter specs. And collectors presumably set their watch-of-the-day when they put it on.

I've wondered/worried if it eventually happens on an older daily wear that is reset about twice a week. In this case, my 12yo 2nd gen Monster.
If so, how would the case threads be fixed/replaced?
Thanks
I read on another tread that people don't notice other peoples watches.
Well… we just got back from the dog kennel and my wife tells me afterward that the lady inside asked to see her watch. Apparently it looked like hers.
My wife said "It…
The 2 tiny spot welded tabs on the back of my Seiko Monster dial have broken off. Just like that. I wasn't fiddling with it. But it has been on my wrist 24/7 for 12 years.
Short of replacing the dial is there any other option.
What I have done…
After 12 years of 24/7 wear, (I've always LOVED a quality sport watch, but only want one to admire), I got the idea to freshen up the look of my SRP307 2nd gen Black Monster. I knew I'd be loosing the brushed, mat look characteristic of th…

I was replacing an NH36 that I’d had in it for a few years.
My frustration is that after I calibrate it to <+/-10sec/ day and <.5ms beat error, when I put the caseback on, the accuracy starts to drift. Then when I cinch it down it’s off by 30sec or more. The beat error stays accurate.
Can anybody explain this and tell me what I can do?
Thanks
