Solid. Thank you very much. I didn't know any of that.
It never ceases to amaze me that people comment on their watch gaining or losing a couple of the 86,400 seconds there are in any given day, are people really expecting a mechanical time piece to be perfectly in sync with the atomic clock?
Or am I just being grouchy because I haven't had a coffee yet?
That kind of +- can be really important.
Is your dad piloting the powered-down Lunar Module, actually towing the CSM back to the earth’s atmosphere?
Was he trying to maneuver to manually adjust the course of the craft?
Did Mission Control determine that he needs to perform a 14-second burn of fuel?
Did he pilot it back to earth?
Hope your dad's home safe.
Same.
Mine is currently at -1.5/day measured by my tracking app.
But that link to Archer is a great and valued explanation.
Completely normal 😁 Just wear and enjoy.

Don't be sorry.
A forum should be a friendly place where you feel comfortable asking questions.
It shouldn't be too hard to relate to someone who is new to the hobby is worried that his $4000 watch is not running according to the specs on paper.
I have a Seiko that I monitor on the same app, probably worth about £100? It has less deviation than my £4000 Omega?
Just an observation.
