What's the accuracy of your Tissot(s) ?

[Junior]

I have been wearing my Seastar 1000 for the last 10 days, and over that period it has kept perfect time - it loses 2 seconds every 16 hours on the wrist, and gains 2 seconds in the next 8 hours, face up, on the stand overnight. Very impressive, particularly as I don't wear it on a regular basis. Having said that, I have 5 different watches with the ETA 2824-2 movement, and the Seastar is the ONLY one that has kept reasonable time straight out of the box!

My T-Touch (Quartz, of course) has lost 1 second in the last 30 days. That's better than my Seiko with the 8F56 movement that is supposed to be accurate to within +/- 20 sec per year. Very pleased with my T-Touch's accuracy. And it's fun to play with!

After repair and regulation (replaced mainspring) I'm running +6 seconds a day, which I'm sure will slow just a bit as the spring works in.

Robi poate vorbim odata pe mesenger cornelparaschiv@yahoo.com, doar ce mi-am luat un Seastar 1000, si am facut comanda de un PRS 516 Valjoux cu cronograf.Ce ma framinta este aceasta regularizare a ceasului, acum e inca in probe dar in 4 zile a castigat 40 de secunde, dar am de gind sa nu ma ating de el 2 luni, iulie si august ca sa vad ce se intampla. Oricum sunt la primul meu ceas automatic si am fost surprins sa vad asemenea devieri de 8-10 secunde la 24 de ore ptr automatic.Ma gandesc sa testez Valjoux inainte de al plati.Ce ma oftica la Seastar este ca nu pot intui exact pozitia minutarului, iar ca sa opresti secundarul fix la 12:00 nici vorba, si ma gandesc ca de aici erorile imense.

Well, if a high-end quartz movement is out of range go for a radio controlled watch: +/- 0

Yeh, but some of us think it's a pain to have to let your watch out at night so it can go sit in the window

After repair and regulation (replaced mainspring) I'm running +6 seconds a day, which I'm sure will slow just a bit as the spring works in.

Mine's settled down now to right about -0.5-+0.5 when worn daily, depending on how active I am. It'll gain about 1 to 1.5 seconds every 24 hours if left dial up. I think that qualifies as deadly accurate for an auto.

Hi to all the guys out there;

I did my time accuracy check for the past few days, in fact I am wondering if my TISSOT is faulty ...
(am using internet sync clock as a reference too...)

Model: PRS 516 Chronograph Valjoux (attached jpeg)
Movement: Automatic CHRONOGRAPH
Accuracy: VERY VERY FRUSTRATED & DISAPPOINTED. I have sync it in the morning 10am local time, till 5pm, my watch gave me the reading of +25min, 5:25pm!!! Something is wrong is it not?

Can anyone help? I ought to bring back to the dealer over the weekend to find out what happen. I have just bought this last year August 2006. I have so little faith now.

I reckoned I have been very careful wearing this as this is my first piece of automatic watch, help please...

Thanks.

My new Tissot Le Locle, ETA 2824-2, 25 jewels.

1st day -/+ 0s

6th day +4s/day


18th day +4s/day

I don't know what to expect after the break-down period of 90 days? Any ideas?

I will be very pleased if after 90 days still running +4s/day or get better like +0.5s/day :)))))))

Friend of mine has a Marcello C with the same movement, running +1s/day.

Hello Guys , I ' M New In The Forum. I Own A Prs 516 Watch. When I Bought It It Was +20 / Day. I Had It Regulated And It's Now +4 - +7 / Day !!!! That's In The Range Of A Chronometer. Believe It Or Not The Last Few Days It's +1 - +2 Seconds A Day !!!!!!!!!!!!
From My Experience Accuracy Is Influenced By Cold Or Hot Weather ( It Runs Faster When It's Cold ) , And Whether The Watch Is Fully Wound Or Not. Anyway, I Am Very Satisfied With Its Accuracy As The Watch Cost Me Only 280 Euro... I Hope It Helps...

25 MINUTES IS DEFINATELY TOO MUCH. LET THE WATCH SETTLE IN FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, MAKE SURE IT'S FULLY WOUND AND MEASURE IT ONCE AGAIN. FROM MY EXPERIENCE ( PRS 516 - NON CHRONO- 2 YEARS OLD) , YOUR AD CAN REGULATE THE WATCH TO RUN -1 / + 8 secs / day WHICH IS PRETY ACCEPTABLE. MINE ( DEPENDIND ON TEMPERATURE) RUNS +1 - +7 / DAY.... USUALLY +4... HOPE IT HELPED...
