Regulating this movement

[mjmj]

Can you please tell me how to regulate the movement shown in the image below? I have looked through RWG and have not found one similar to this one. The movement is running about 1 min slow every 3-4 days.

Thanks for your help

Cheers MJ

Although that is slow it is still with in tolerences for a non chronometer, if you like this watch then dont play with it, start with something you don't mind messing up,

1 min in 4 days is acceptable. I wouldnt touch it. The adjustment is so finite, that it might take you quite a while to get it to perfect. You would need a watch beat monitor thingy to get it any more accurate.

Looking at how close the indexs are it would not surprise me that the beat was out also, if you have a local watch smith with vibrograph or similar he should not charge much for a quick look at how it is running and regulation, Gioarmany has done a couple of tutorials on regulation and the theory is the same for just about every movement, but i recommend

a. live with it

b. get it checked out and regulated by a watch smith

c. learn a bit on some cheep watches and then and only then work on your best ones.

Did you tried lay your watches on diferent sides (side - crown down, side - crown up, glass down/up) during the night? I had simmilar problem with my watch and this siple thing helped me a lot ( when I wear my watch they go faster and when I lay them down they go slightly slow, this way it seems that they get about + 5-10 sec per day.

btw. Can you show us your watch from front side?

Thank you guys for all the advice.

For now I will leave it and when it really starts to annoy me I will take her down to the watchsmith. I dare say I am not yet skillful enough to have a go.

im surprised that nobody has wqrriten a through FAQ in regulating different movements.

I have two 7750's that I need to regulate.

I googled and ended up on a RWI post that said move the thin long regulation bit clockwise to make it faster and counter-clockwise to make it slower. And that does make sense a lil, but my experiences with both my watches is that the opposite is true.

I'm gaining 1 min every 24 hours for both.

why is self regulating risky?

Isn't it a simple case of pulling the crown out to stop the spinning bit from getting caught by the toothpick, and moving the regulater to the appropriate direction by a hair.

There is a really good post from gioarmani about 7750 regulation
