Is three minutes fast in a week to 10 days acceptable? I was pissed my JLC is ONE minute late!!

Take your watch for a service. Best, Kari

to have to take a watch for "service" after a mere month from purchase!

The oils might be dry or anything. Anyhow, the accuracy is not within acceptable level. And when your watch is new, it does not cost anything to get it adjusted. Best, Kari

Remember the physics lesson back in school? To demagnetize a metal u just give it a few bangs against something :) What will I bang my 372 against? :)

Be careful not leave your watch next to magnets or other sources of magnetic fields. Cheers, Anthony

crown down during my 8-hour sleep (yes, I sleep eight hours :)) and will c what happens in a week... How can u measure how many seconds loss or gain over just 24 hours (not average over a week)?!
