Just bought a Tudor glamour 26mm got a question
Got it from a store closing sale. MSRP was $2950CAD got it for $1450CAD. Brand new with warranty card. Model is 51000
It's a gift for my wife. But she currently has a tiasot 2671 ETA. Runs at good time for the price. But would the Tudor 2671 use the top grade from ETA? Anyone know the accuracy? |

Yes, Tudor uses Top Grade eta. It can be regulated to as close to perfect as a Rolex movement by a good watchmaker (or the RSC, they have done three of mine, free of charge). How well it runs off the shelf is hit and miss. Should be within cosc anyway.

How do I send me Tudor to RSC? Through my dealer or contact RSC first? It's currently 2 seconds faster in 6 hours.

IF you live close enough, you can take it to the RSC yourself. See how it performs over a few days at least first.

So far it's 7-8 seconds quicker on first day. What should I do? Is this movement even capable of 1-2 seconds a day?
Or will it get better over time since it is brand new watch? |

It's an ETA 2671 movement. Should be capable of 1-2 secs a day, I think. As I said before, wait a few days at least.
