The accuracy of my 116710 & Orbita watch tester
I just purchased a TYMC timing machine from Orbita and it is a great little device. Below is an image of my GMT 116710 on the machine. By the looks of it, no regulation is required. In actuality, the watch gains about 1-2 seconds a week.
This is the screen with the 116710 face up. The S/d is standard deviation / Day. The 308 degrees is the amplitude, and the beat error is .1ms, very well within specification.
A great manual that describes all the timing variables is posted by Witchi at [external link removed as per forum rules]
I have also updated my Rolex regulation page at [external link removed as per forum rules] with images from Axelzon.
Cheers,
