Horological Meandering

Never jump to conclusions...

 

Well, kinda like our children, just because one whines for ice cream today, and refuses to leave the county fair and go home, doesn't mean they are the "worst behaved of the brood"

The one that was fast by multiple tens of minutes?  (it was "quiet" for some months; went on a plane ride and through security X-ray before it started "galloping") is now only -3 seconds in 24 hours.

And the others?

plus 25 seconds on the one that should be most accurate (one would think...)

and plus 13 seconds on the one that is the sibling that had been seeing the world for a few years.

Very, very strange - the one that is now most accurate, which was WAAAAAY off, is the least travelled of the three; and middle in terms of age;

the most off is not only the most "complex" and ostensibly the most "accurate" but also the oldest of the bunch, in modern wrist watch time. 

The one in the middle, current performance wise, as of yesterday/today, is the youngest (since creation) but has travelled more of the world and been running the most consistently of the family.  Like a seasoned world traveller with many stories to tell, he's (no, not it) got the wounds and scars to show for it, but in way, is more handsome and worldly for it.
