Crazy accurate 3285 GMT!

Hello guys!. I’ve owned many automatic watches over the years and I’m honestly shocked by the accuracy of my latest acquisition…the Sprite. I bought mine 2 months ago and set it to atomic time as soon as I got home. I checked today for the first time and it had lost 4 seconds in total in 2 months!!!. Most accurate automatic watch I have ever owned!. The second most accurate would be my Navitimer 01 which is gaining 3 seconds a day. Not complaining but I’m impressed!. Included a pic of the Navitimer because its one of my favorite watches and I feel like it :-)

My 3285 movement is consistently between +0.5 and +1 sec per day, worn on wrist 24/7. Pretty impressive for a mechanical watch indeed.

My VTNR and my BLNR both seem to be super accurate right now. Probably no more than +1 second/day. Enjoy!

My Sprite has been on the wrist for a week and it has been crazy accurate as well. What a watch!

Yup, my Sub is about the same. It loses less than -1spd when I wear it 24/7 and pretty much zero when I leave it face up over night.
