My watch seems to be accurate when I’m wearing it (fully wound). I haven’t had it on a machine and this is just comparing it to my phone clock. However at night I rest it crystal up and in the morning it’s typically 2 minutes fast. That doesn’t seem normal of course but since it’s been accurate while wearing it I haven’t been in a rush to take it to the shop. Any thoughts as to what is causing this? I thought it could be magnetized but then it would probably run fast all the time, right? Thanks for any advice!
It is just a sign that you should not stop wearing your Speedy How long do you have it? How long is it behaving like this? When was your last service?
1 - Are you winding it once a day? 2 - How long since last service? 3 - Check it against a better time source...
I alternate watches but just got back from a week long work trip where I wore the watch daily. I take it off before bed and would top off the winding every morning after adjusting the time (usually 2 min fast overnight). I don’t know the service history (I haven’t had it serviced since I’ve owned it during the past 18 months). I think I’ll take it by the watchmaker and put it on the time-o-graph to get some readings. I’ll update once I get some details. The crazy thing is that it seems to remain accurate while I wear it.
UPDATE: it went to the watchmaker and was put on the time-o-grapher. Unfortunately I didn’t get to see the readings. The watchmaker adjusted it though and said to wear it for a week and see how it goes. If it wasn’t running right they’d perform a full service. So far so good though. Seems that post-adjustment its running great and keeping time. I guess this means it was always running fast and I just didn’t notice it until it would sit untouched overnight.
