Not bad...
I've been wondering how accurate is my Explorer (216570). Over the last three months I've been keeping tabs on it. It's been a near constant 1.5 seconds per day. Not shabby at all!
It hardly ever leaves my wrist and it seems that the more consistently I wear it, the more accurate and reliable it becomes. For a while, as a bit of an experiment, I wore it inconsistently (but never to where the power reserve ran out and the watch actually stopped) and its accuracy and consistency varied fairly wildly- up to +5 seconds/day. Just one of the fun things of wearing a Rolex I suppose. |

That's excellent and I have to agree, mine is most accurate when worn rather than left off the wrist. I guess our watches are telling us "wear me"!

I've had a similar experience with my GMTII and my DJ. Gotta love it!

My LV has averaged over 2 yrs. .05 sec. Fast! Very impressed with the accuracy!

That's awesome !
My DSSD has gained 1 second in the past 3 days. I wear mine all day long only take it off to shower ( funny enough, since it can withstand 3 miles under the sea LOL ). |

Three years later after picking up mine it's still right there. Not bad at all.
