Newbie question: Need to understand what the numbers mean on a watch testing machine?!

Recommended Posts

Please excuse my newbie question, but I have had a few QC pics for watches I have ordered/received. 
 

The question I have is, I see photos/videos of the watch strapped into some kind of electronic monitor. I know that one number is the + or - of how many seconds it gains or loses per day, but what do the other numbers mean?

 

TIA

So, to go with that, a chart of popular movements with their appropriate lift angles would be superb. 

Haven't looked yet, but it must be out there somewhere..

Well, that wasn't tricky

Just don't be a putz and kick back a QC watch because your amplitude is 269 instead of 273 because you read it in an internet forum.
