SBrat Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I am new to the forum and have picked up 4 watches over the last 3 months-mostly Asian 7753/7750 based and 1 Swiss ETA powered Sub. 3 of my watches are running +15 to + 30 seconds per day and one is running -45 to -50 seconds per day. None of them have been serviced or regulated. Would love to hear as to how the watches of other members have been behaving in terms of time accuracy. If I was to have these regulated, how accurate could these get. Thanks for your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I've had some Asians running within COSC standard out of the box. I've had others that needed a little 'tweaking', but I've found that in general, Asian movements keep accurate enough time for my purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobM Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 The asian movements in my reps are certainly among the most accurate timekeepers I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shundi Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Most of my asian movements keep time between -3 and +12 seconds per day....not bad for something that costs $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I have no complaints with the Asian movements in a handful of reps I have. I have only had one that ran super fast, but I was able to tune it myself and it too works great. Since I rarely wear the same watch longer than a week, any deviation is never really noticed. (I don't keep them on winders, so they eventually stop, and get reset upon my next wear.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_sphere Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Better movement IMHO. You never get your money out of a swiss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highoeyazmuhudee Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 i PERSONALLY never had an asian movement run within acceptable timmings out of the box. you can regulate them fairly well tho. my 4813 was keeping +4 a day BUT when the date change drags over from 1030pm-midnight it slows the minute hand down and it loses time that way.... that wouldnt happen on a swiss ETA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakemaster Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 These auto watches. Not meant to be dealy accurate. But you can regulate them. Remember this. If you're watch is 99.5% accurate it can still have a variance of up to 1:45 A DAY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
