Regulating A New Steelfish?


Recommended Posts

Posted

My new Steelfish arrived yesterday. Lovely watch and I'm very pleased with it. However, it seems to be running a bit fast and looks like it's gained 30 seconds in the last 16 hours. Is there anyway that a newbie like me can regulate this watch so that it keeps better time? The movement is the gen eta version rather than the Asian copy.

wait a couple of weeks and see if it still runs fast after the break-in period, if not the movement is probably dirty, which is quite common with replicas.

OK, I'll do that. If it is dirty will a watchsmith be able to clean it so that runs better?

of course, but be careful with those quick jobs where they just drain the movement in a cleaning solution - you should get it properly serviced, once you did you will enjoy for a long time. Just check the forum in the expert and watch repair sections for more details.
