DB Cooper 12 Posted March 28, 2022 If you haven't tried running your watch through a degausser, I just did and had great results. My GMT Coke (unknown factory) was at +15 seconds per day on the timegrapher but really ran at +14 seconds per day and the rotor was noisy. I bought some Mobius 9010 and put a tiny drop into the rotor bearings and it went to +12 seconds per day. I ran it through a degausser I picked up on Amazon and it's now at +7 seconds per day. I just received a beautiful BP factory GMT Batman with 2813 movement. It was at +2 seconds per day on the timegrapher but really ran at +3 seconds per day. (Amazed me for a 21,600 BPM movement) I ran it through the degasser and it went to 0 seconds per day. Just thought I'd mention this info in case you haven't tried a degausser. Don't know how they get magnetized but somehow they do during normal wear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After working in a AD when younger it’s crazy what can do it, microwaves and fridges were really common Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FudgyDocker 3,501 Posted March 28, 2022 Yeah, got mine from eBay for a few quid. Be stupid not to have one, really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philiusmaximus 5,064 Posted March 28, 2022 Yep I had a watch running considerably fast. A few passes over the degausser and it went to +/-0 secs per day. Worth it for the 8 quid I paid for it. Mind you, the typical Chinese sweat shop wiring on it makes me think I'm only a few more uses away from a house fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
