From losing 60 seconds daily, to +3s daily and smooth, closely spaced, solid near horizontal line/graph.

Local watchmaker took a day to service. Far cry from 3 months and having it sent back to Seiko Japan, when I approached local distributor a decade back.

6r movement has mad positional variance ... What happens of you rotate it 90 degrees and wait 20 seconds?

:) as it happens sarb017 has been stored like so for about a week now, lost a minute since I last set against NTP/internet time servers. Been winding once daily and amazed by the huge improvement of losing a minute daily before maintenance.

Wrist times been dominated by SBPK003 in new-watch-honeymoon-phase.

But yeah, I passed on the Brown Weave 1959 Alpinist because of the not-that-improved 6R35 movement. Even though that dial is mesmerizing IRL.
