I'll do it each day and take the avg. at the end.

Agreed and I'm not worry! Just want to know how this one compares to my Datona!

I like the sound of "my watch is 99.997% accurate!". Thanks padi56

Glad you like Emerald Time!

Doing this I have maintained +1second accuracy over three weeks with my Milgauss!

Here is a copy of the Rolex instructions on self regulating your watch!
Thank you for the info Shany! I'll do it after done with the test.

Thank you all.
