New 116610LN <+1 sec a week

Just a quick note, a week ago I had some concern about my brand new 116610LN's accuracy when being used during active use.

I set it to http://www.time.gov seven days ago and have been wearing it 24x7; to the gym, bike rides, yoga, wrestling with crazy 8 year old kid :-), and it is off now by less than 1 second positive.

Very impressive.

So that thread, which I will update with this threads results, was definitely user error IMHO.

I've got a 14060m and a SubC. I also have observed that whatever one that I happen to wear "constantly" seems to keep better time.

That's incredible...mine is around -1s/day

I'm still happy with it. My new DJ was +4s /day
