Accuracy??

What type of accuracy to you guys/gals expect on your watches? These watches are all about 3-4 weeks old. I am using the iPhone app Twixt, and these were last week’s measurements:

I have three (Sub ND, Datejust 41 and Milgauss) that all run just under a second fast per day. That is on the wrist during the day and off at night. The resting position when they are off makes no difference as to how they run. Less than 1.0 seconds fast per day is astounding to me.

By my reckoning it takes a Rolex a minimum of six months to settle down.

I have found on my OP 39 and my, now departed, Sea-Dweller 116600 that positioning with crown down did slow them overnight by almost a second.

My DJ41 is within +/-2, wouldn't bother me if it was -4/+6. It's the charm of a mechanical watch. If it's past chronometer specs, take it in for adjustment/service.
