It means how accurate your watch keeps time compared to something like an atomic clock which has the exact time. Mechanical watches do not keep perfect time, so you might find that your watch runs a few seconds fast or slow per day. Since breitlings are COSC certified, the should not run slower than -4 seconds per 24 hours, or faster than +6 seconds per 24 hours. If you are in the US, you can use a website like time.gov to sync your watch exactly, and then wait a few days and check to see how far off it is.

Dude has a legitmate question. He's new and trying to learn about his watch. Making fun of him is not cool.

Which model did you purchase as your first Breitling? Did you buy it new or from another collector?
