Just tested today on the timegrapher:
Dial up: 0+/- seconds per day, 280 degrees and 0.1ms beat error.
Dial down: +10 seconds per day, 274 degrees and 0.1ms beat error.

Strange as it may seem when I wound the watch 60 rotations, it seems to have changed (settled down) the movement from +10 seconds per day to 0 seconds per day (dial up).

I think that winding the watch 60 times has relaxed the main spring and the result is more accurate timekeeping. But how was I to know to wind the watch 60 times, there isn't anything in the instruction manual about that.... To me there is no other explanation how this can go overnight from +10 to +/- 0 seconds per day.
