Accuracy Seiko 6R54. 0 sec p/day

Still in honeymoon phase, so after 10 days, still the same watch 😊.

The last 7 days I have been tracking the accuracy of this watch. And normally I don’t really care about this, I rotate watches anyway so I have to set them almost every time I put them on my wrist, and I have almost exclusively vintage watches - not the most accurate kind 😮 - shocker!

Long story short. The last seven days this movement performed really really well! Plus/min 0 seconds a day! I have never seen this.

I read so where that these movements can be hit or miss - for now I’m happy 😃.

Anybody else have had a new watch this accurate?

Edit 20-06-2024: the watch has not left my wrist since i bought it. Just checked the accuracy again. And Toolwatch told me the watch is running fast, 0,8 seconds a day. Not too shabby, this Seiko 6L35

Yup. Rolex, Omega, Tudor, almost anything with a Kenisi movement, all that precise. No Seikos I have ever even come close to this precission out of the box.

You got lucky my friend.

Wow increadable of Rolex, Tudor and Omega to produce consistently such accurate movements. What a tech and what precision manufacturing if you think about it.

My Seamaster 300 heritage, got it back from service last March, can wear it for a week or two without resetting it.

Dare I say it'd rival a cheap older quartz 😱😅

Yes, that, after all is the goal of our expensive mechanical watches. To be as accurate as a cheap quartz watch. Hehe 😉 incredible.

Yup, I acknowledge I'm ridiculous 😂
