That was me
I agree w/ Art Unless you have a .6 mm screwdriver, a Dissecting microscope , A good light , and a really clean environment .Don't attempt. I work in the micrometers and nanometer environment every day so it was not a problem. You might find a jeweler who will for a price give you a multiple adjustment package in a months time . I did find that the watch had to settle in a bit The best I was able to get was about 2-3 sec fast every couple of days. according to the atomic clock. Beside I have to set the watch every other month anyway I know get the 100 mvnt and I won't have that problem. I'd do it for you but don't think you want to part w/ the watch for a month .

Adjusting the watch rate with the swans neck screw
Most likely a silly question , but has anyone tried adjusting their GO's to better the watch rate. It seems like it would be fairly simple by carefully removing the case back and slowly turning the swans neck screw and using a little patience and common s...
It's been done, Mark . . .
. . . follow the thread below. glashutte.watchprosite.com Personally, I feel that the potential downside outweighs the benefits, especially if the watch in question is under warranty. I admire Jeff's technical acumen and sense of adventure, but I won't be...

Too late, I did the adjustment
Hi Jeff, Nice to hear from the man who gave me hope in doing the rate adjustment. I have been a tinkerer and mechanic just about my whole life so I decided to give it a try. Following your basic rules, tools needed and clean envirornment (as much as possi...
I'm glad it worked out for you
Congrats on the adjusting. Keep us posted on how accurate the watch remains for you. My watch has settled on to about 1 minute slow every 2 months. I use the stop watch alot at work so i think that function slows it down a bit even thoug i have it set for...
Still running well
Hi Jeff, Thanks for the e mail. The watch is still running about 1-2 seconds fast a day. I am much happier to have it working this well, I was worried it was just getting too fast before the adjustment I did. To adjust it I removed the back very carefully...
All's well that ends well, Mark . . .
. . . I admire your sense of adventure and willingness to take the next step in watch appreciation by getting involved technically . . . I'm afraid I don't have the guts to tamper with any of my Glashütte Originals . . . regards, Art
