time piece accuracy- Seamaster Pro - WOW

I would have never believed a watch could be this accurate. 2 weeks ago , I bought a
Seamaster Pro (calibre 2500)

I wanted to keep a record of the timepiece against the US Official Time , so I started a daily log to see if I am gaining time or loosing.

I learned from here that , depending on how I set the watch down at night could
result in a gain or loss.

Anyway, I am dead on to the second , with the atomic clock after 2 weeks.

I wear it all day and it might speed up
a second and I place it with crown up but at about a 45 degree angle.

Bottom line, I am amazed that a mechanical watch could keep this accurate.
