: Whilst I know that conventional wisdom dictates that we are not

: the following obervation interesting.
: My 2254 normally averages out at running - 1 sec per day. 2 years
: old, never been opened...not too shabby at all.
: But the strange thing is that, for a few days after I have re-set
: the time, that accuracy goes haywire. For 2 to 3 days after
: setting it, it runs at prob about -3.5/ -4 sec per day. Still
: essentially within COSC specs, sure, but then after about a week
: settles down to -1 sec per day again. Happens every time, so at
: least it is consistent!
: Anyone else???

I will freely admit to being obsessive about certain things -- accuracy of an inherently inaccurate device like a mechanical watch NOT being one of them.
Somebody else will have to chime in.
