    Default break in autos tracking seconds

    My new Invictas, all still breaking in and being either worn or on winders are 8928... a very respectable - 3 sec / day
    6931 at + - 1 second thats amazing
    and lastly the swiss??? 9937.. not looking to complain, its + 6 butthat could change...
    My two twin Seikos, different color sceams same watch model??? are withing 1 minute / year, they are proof of the Japaneese watch excellence, although not a true auto...
    I am going to update this and maybe break into the cases and play with the settings...
    fyi the two non "swiss" are 25s looking to find a Nh 35 soon to compare... will post pix as well....
    Newest acquisitions bulova and a Croton clone rolex I do not believe are autos...
    I know people like to pat themselves on the back for there plus 1k$ "swiss" watches, and there are many many fine watches. Not taking anything away from them, but really my 6931 sold for 150 plus shipping new and looks and runs fantastic...

    I am using the US web based atomic time

    Nice, I was looking at autos this last weekend on the Sunday Run but was afraid to pull the trigger. None were water resistant enough for my wants. I saw one on another Thursday Spring so I'll just keep on waiting and wearing my other Invicta time pieces. I also use the NIST site to track my watches performance. Good site.

    Try this out. Ulackfocus posted this in another thread and it works perfectly for our purposes even though we're not talking about a Rolex the principles should be the same. Thanks Dennis
