It has been in to Rolex four times for oiling, and general service. Funny, each time I told them it runs seconds fast/week they said (and charged me) for putting on the chronometer and adjusting. Still it runs seconds fast/week.

shouldn't you take it back and demand that they actually service it right or give you your money back?

Seconds fast per week is not out of spec.

Yes, you’re right.
It has been to Rolex on Wilshire. It has been to Rolex in NY.
Though I’d rather have it perfect, I still rather have it seconds fast than slow.
That will remain it’s personality and I don’t let it really trouble me.

depending on how many seconds, it would still annoy me

my wife's datejust speeds up
but then she tends to not wear the watch over the weekend so it will use up its reserve and then completely stop
so when Monday morning rolls around, she always asks me to adjust the time for her
so the cycle begins again
her watch is definitely overdue for service

my daytona is 3 years old
wear it pretty much everyday
this just reminded me to see if my watch is staying on time or not

So yeah. Had way too much to drink and ended up buying a Apple watch 5 off eBay.

New, unopened at a stella price.


Tudor and Omega will still be used, of course.

Threw a jubilee band on my 009 seiko. I think I'm going to mod this thing a little.
