I do not know what the deal is...

Unless my watch is right and the Atomic Clock on the internet is wrong something is wrong hear!

Like stated before in past Topics... my watch is practically brand new and has NEVER been mishandled or dropped. Bought from an AD in Philadelphia, PA 100% legit!

From past blogs people say sometimes this can be from running the chronograph (which is like to do, there something about watching the chronograph move that I like I guess) and it loses power. But my argument to that is that I wear it everyday so why would it lose power?!

Anyways... Lately I have tried keeping the chronograph completely off. Checked the time vs. the Atomic Clock on the internet and STILL, its running slow about 6 seconds everyday. So if I were to wait a week I would lose close to a minute!

I REALLY DON'T WANT TO GO A DAY WITH OUT MY WATCH AND SENDIng IT AWAY TO GET FIXED!
WHAT CAN BE DONE TO HELP THIS SITUATION!?

Please help!

Take it to an AD with a watchmaker and a timing machine and get them to regulate it - you'll be without your watch for about 10 minutes.

-6 seconds is outside of the -4 / +6 COSC standard so you shouldn't be charged.

@ the OP - you're lucky you're in the states. If you were in the UK you'd be without your watch for about 4 to 6 weeks as AD's over here (at least the ones I've been to) aren't authorised to do ANY work on watches, including something as simple as a regulation.
