I just got a Navi 125th anniversary in the mail today ,and It appears to be losing time, it appears to be off by 1 min after an hour... The watch is New old stock ,and is from 2009, Do you think I need to get it serviced? I am not sure how long the watch has been sitting . Any ideas? |

COSC is -4 +6 per day, so your with watch being off by 1 minute per hour, it would definitely seem like it needs looking at. |

Well on the face of it it's been sitting for 4 years. Is it from an AD? If so I'd send it in under the warranty I assume came with it. |

A minute an hour is a major error, that's not going to be addressed by a simple regulation and implies that there is something more serious going on in the movement. It definitely needs service attention. |

The watch doesn't have any warranty left on it, it's dated 8/2009, and was purchased from a independent watch dealer . Damn, I don't want to send it off already. I just got it. |

But it's way out of spec. I think you either have to ask for a refund, or to take the hit and have BUSA sort it - or somewhere in between, ie talk to the vendor about the issue to see if you can come to some agreement such as a consideration for having it BUSAd. The dealer presumably have their own warranty and might offer to take it back and sort it, but that's not a road I'd want to go down myself. |

I think I did it wrong, I timed it with my Iphone, I just called the guy i got it from and he told me to use the usno master clock... It appears to be within spec right now.. I will report back in the am if its out of whack.. |

There is an atomic clock app for iPhone called Precise Time that I use now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Are you guys referring to the stop watch function on the iPhone? If so I use it to time my pieces and serves just fine. |
