greekgod Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Hello guys, I bought a PAN318 from a very reputed seller here. I have received the QC pics. In one of the pics I see my watch attached to the oscilloscope reading a beat error of 0.5 sec. Can someone shed some light on thsi matter please. I need to get back to the seller soon about this. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemenon Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Just got my 318 and mine is 0.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greekgod Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 So is 0.5 way off? what could this lead to eventually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 It is normal and actually quite good for a replica. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txcollector Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 0.5 ms is fine. For good movements 0.6ms would be considered the maximum accepted but you are talking about fractions of seconds a day on the balance wheel adjustment. The dealer most probably is showing you the performance with watch dial up. You probably will get more variation with movement of your arm and temperature than this beat error that the timing machine is showing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolexman Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Beat error varries regarding to the position of the movement. 0.5 dial up can lead to 0.1 crown down (which is the position the movement is in most when wearing). Don't worry about it too much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
