These listen to the ticks coming from the watch, then convert that into a variance over 24 hrs, displaying or giving a readout. These can be informative, and fun to watch - or they can make you a wreck when you see how wide the variance can be just by changing positions.

Sometimes a watch will run solidly for a good while then all of a sudden it can lose a few extra seconds and stay that way or return to its original timekeeping. Simply monitor and see in the fullness of time whether it gets worse or stabilises again at another rate. |

I'm no expert on this stuff by any means, but I think that is the good call even though the watch wasn't worn over its lifespan. I imagine both the gaskets and lubricants are both in rough shape despite not seeing usage.

I believe after you test as 'tools' has stated in post #18, you are likely to discover that there is nothing at all wrong with your watch.
