I'm really no longer an accuracy freak. For some time it used to be very important to me that a watch was really 100% accurate. Or at least not too slow. It made me mad when one of my watches failed in this respect. Because then I felt couldn't rely on it...
I’m currently in that accuracy-fanaticism phase.
And I read your post with great admiration and enjoyment. It’s nice to see something that is not just a pretty face 😉
Thanks for your kind reply!
I understand your accuracy-fanatism very well. But it drove me crazy and partly took away the joy of some good pieces. So I stopped it, and with a certain generosity I am able to enjoy my addiction much more. BUT I still cannot stand a watch that loses ti...
Same here unfortunately....
Makes me crazy if it is over 5s/day even knowing this is very good
Well, I think this kind of „perfection“
showing in always planning and organizing everything exactly and meticulously (the whole life!) seems to be a „curse of these times“. At least that's how it was and sometimes is still in my personal life (I own an IT company). And having to “function” per...

Was the watch positioned when not worn?
I have been in the honeymoon phase for some weeks now
where I have worn the watch daily from ca. 7:00 a.m. to 0:30 a.m. Last weekend I had it in the safe for ca. 20 hours. When I take the watch off my wrist I put it on a flat surface in a dial-up-position. Because of the pushers I don’t want to lay the Da Vi...

Yes, I also remember a
small booklet from Rolex which was topic here in this forum. Crown up: The watch runs more slowly due to greater resistance. Dial below: The watch runs faster, as this results in the least amount of friction. But I didn’t use any of these „tricks“ to opti...
Ha! Yessss!!
Many thanks for posting this again. 😃 I remember I have made a screenshot back then, but I haven’t found it anymore.
Thank you so much! 😊
And I understand you very well!! I was so stupid to sell my first generation 3750. I sold it for a watch I even don’t own anymore. And it took me 16 years to correct this mistake with this second generation 3754-07.
LOLLL!
Perhaps I could convert some of my watches to battery operation at a later date. Perhaps the MR? 😁
