| Post subject: | Time Setting problem.... |
I've had my Blackbird BEB for about 5 months now and I hadn't really paid any attention to the "COSC" accuracy until recently. Here's my problem: when I try to set my watch, I will set my seconds to :00 and then move the minute hand to an upcoming minute so I can have both seconds and minutes in sync. However, after I start the watch again, it seems to take about 45 seconds to a minute for the minute hand to "engage," and I'm left with my watch being accurate on the seconds, but about 45-60 seconds slow on the minutes hand. Maybe the gears have to catch up and it takes about that time to do so..? Do I have to set my minute hand 45-60 seconds ahead of the actual time...?? I am a little annoyed.. Anyone have any suggestions, thoughts? |

Your watch is perfectly normal, there is slack in the running train to prevent binding. If you want to synch it look at the advice from O2AFAC67 in this thread - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10570, but be aware that it's a temporary measure. |
