Itīs nice to check the accuracy>>>>>

Itīs fun to find out how good the movement works.

So I set up the red one.



And start up the machine.



Me like, a great result.

Buy a professional camera and youīre a professional

Itīs a microphone that counts the beats and then
calculate how accurate the movement is.

The last pic shows itīs a little slow.

I check it out at the Basel Show last year and there they
have a little more up to date machine.

That one says -1 sec a day.

Thanks Jocke that is very interesting.
It's amazing that there is equipment to test the accuracy of mechanical watches to such incredibly small levels of inaccuracy.
