Sub running fast?

Guys,

Had my L-Serial Sub serviced (first time since new and i am the original owner) recently at RSC Beverly Hills. Watch is running about 2 minutes fast a week. Is this acceptable? It's kind of annoying but I am not sure what is within the norm?

Thanks,

That's way too fast..' Basic COSC standards at the extreme are only 60 seconds fast in 10 days, and they can do much better than that. It should be performing at about 1-2 minute off per month, or better..

Take it back to them and have them regulate it....

Agreed. COSC specs are minus 4 to plus 6 secs./day.

Send it back and have it re-regulated.

It might need to be demagnetized. Perhaps it came in contact with a magnetic field during transit.
