Re: Auto accuracy
In Response To: Auto accuracy ()

I don't want to stir any feathers, but I have found a method which achieves the greatest overall accuracy over a period of a month. It might gain or lose a little when looking at daily accuracy, but over a month it can be pretty accurate. Sometimes less than 10 seconds off. If that. It works very well with my Omega SMP and my wife's Rolex. Here is what we do. We place the watches on our wrists for sleeping. I know it sounds almost unbelievable, but it is true. These watches can amazingly be worn while sleeping. I know it is hard to comprehend how a watch can be worn while sleeping, but it can be done. Joking aside, it seems to equal things out as far as positions. One has to accept that these watches are made to be worn at all times. Nothing else. And they work best when used in that manner.
