Thanks Roff
Demagnetized using your instruction and left my TOC overnight face up. In the morning 0 time gain or loss. Wore it for 13 hours with +1 sec gain. Left overnight (10hrs) crown up with -1 sec. So this morning I'm right back to exact time!!! My watch has never behaved this way before and I'm pretty friggin' stoked!!

I have a blue demagnetizer like shown above what procedure did you use to demagnetize using it?

Roff, when you said "tray type" did you mean like the blue one above?

My demagnetizer did not come with instructions so I have been hunting on Internet for proper procedures.
Thanks in advance

That is a tray type (for want of a better name), that's the modern Chinese style, the vintage ones tend to be cylinders that you pass the watch through. It's simply an electric motor that creates a magnetic field with continuously reversing polarity. It's pretty easy to use as long as you keep the watch centred in the field. For this type all that you do is put the watch on the tray with the demagnetiser off, turn it on for 2 - 3 seconds, turn it off and remove the watch. That's it!
