·I recently got a Speedmaster Professional (bog standard, sapphire glass speedy) in early December and I love it so far.
However, recently, in the past few days to be specific, I’ve noticed it’s time keeping is not as precise as it was when I first got it. That’s no biggie for me, as long as it’s not getting too far ahead of the actual time. Well, now it is getting to that point.
It’s currently running 26 seconds ahead of the actual time. On Thursday, when I first noticed it was not as accurate as usual, it was only 15 seconds ahead. By the end of that day, it was 20 seconds ahead. It’s gained 10 seconds in 2 days, and now I’m worried that there’s a problem with the watch. I don’t want it to get much more than 30 seconds ahead, but at this rate it won’t be long before it gets a full minute ahead.
I’ve been looking online trying to see if this is an issue, and I’m wondering if, according to the symptoms, it might be a magnetisation issue. I’m hoping someone a lot more knowledgable about these things than me can tell me what the issue is, if there is one at all. I just want my watch to stick to the time and not run fast, so I don’t have to keep setting it back to the right time every few days.
Thanks!
