Without knowing your activity level it is possible that it ran out of power.

As has been said. Wind it up (+45 turns) set it and see how it goes in normal wear.

Report back in 2 months.

What do you mean by activity level?

I am not sitting at a desk all day at all, I am pretty active, moving about a lot.

I am not running a marathon every day but then who is!

Hi All,

Update: it's running at around 15 seconds fast per day at the moment

I think it needs to be regulated myself

I purchased a BNIB, DSSD about 2 and a half weeks ago and mine is running about 10 seconds fast a day. The first couple of weeks was pretty erratic but from reading past threads I knew this was normal so I waited past the breaking in period. I have been tracking my DSSD since the 8th of February and I am running 10 seconds fast a day. I am going to wait another 2 weeks to see what happens before I take a trip to the RSC in NY. I will advise.

Yes please do keep me informed.

I am heading back to the UK at the end of the month so will try to get mine sorted when I am back.

i haven't really bothered checking into this procedure - i am assuming i take it into a AD and then they sort it out for me?

I'm sorry to hear this. I hope all is well. I just synced up my DSSD to time.gov, you got me all worried now!

I'm not worried because I know the RSC will fix it. Although you spend all this money and you figure it should be within the COSC tolerance rates.
