All I can contribute to this thread is Turler was a large retailer that put their name on the watches they sold.

Someone else far more knowledgeable will come along and help with the watch itself.

Time moves forward. Setting the hands. Pull the crown out. When done. Push crown back in.

Come on, Don. He's saying it's running too fast and asking how to regulate.

I'm no expert, so someone else may jump in and say, " oh don't do that!"

Caveat is that you can seriously damage your watch by attempting to adjust it if you don't know what you're doing.

There's a little finger on the balance cock that points to a scale. One side of the scale reads A and the other side reads R. Press against the finger to slide it in one direction or another to regulate the timing.

A is for avancer, French for Fast
R is for retard, French for Slow

In your case, you want to move the finger toward R to slow down the movement.

I believe each hash mark on the scale indicates 15 seconds per day. So if your watch is running 7 seconds fast, move it halfway to one hash and time it again.

I hope this helps! Don't break your watch! I wouldn't work on my own watch, but I believe in you!

Thank you very much, I understand you.

Turler are a Swiss high end Jeweller who have had a relationship with Omega for many years. Omega personalised their stock.
Father and son still run the business.
Some of their 'older' Omega's are collected specifically for the Turler signature.

Oh if only this were true. The tiniest movement of the regulator arm can change the rate a great deal.

Get the watch serviced first. The watchmaker will set it to a good average rate and after you wear it for a couple of weeks, you can get it adjusted again to acommodate your habits.

At the moment your regulator is set to the ideal (middle) position.

If your watch is significantly gaining time in that position it means that it needs a service.
Simply slowing it down will only contribute to wear and tear.
