To be honest, I'm not watch tech savvy so also not sure if it's auto........
My watch being the Skyland Avenger........cant find it mentioned anywhere in my manual.
I know its a selfwinding mechanical..........

Not sure if this is the right place but I reset my watch to that of the Atomic Time software and after 48 hrs, seems to be around 4 sec behind. Is this normal as that would make it around 25 seconds for a month...............is that acceptable? The link to the software is as follows: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/atomic-clock/ |

If you have an Auto watch which is COSC certified, it's normal. COSC specs is -4/+6 sec/24hrs. |

AS is Auto (self winding) and is COSC certified. 4 sec in 48 hours is well inside specs. Nothing wrong with your AS. |

Agreed, your watch is -2 seconds /24, that's pretty good for a mechanical watch I'd say. Mine is between +2 +3 /24 |

You should also make note of what position you set it down at night (i.e. glass up, crown up, case-back up etc.) as they can each affect accuracy differently. Find out which ones best, and start putting it like that from now on. |
