I really do not see this an issue but what could have gone wrong? probably got magnetized.

doramas · 22 September 2018, 10:22 PM

It has gone down to +5 seconds :pensando:

Try pairing the sauna with some yoga to bring the amplitude down.

Rubbish his watch is not magnetised given the facts that the movement is constantly affected by the earth's gravity, metal expansion and contraction, temperature variations, subtle changes in lubrication and friction, shocks, and so on. A drift of a few seconds is hardly life threatening and no real concern unless you have {CCTS} constant checking time syndrome.

Elvis wore his King Midas in the hot tub.

He didn't care!

"THANK YOU VERY MUCH"

And ELVIS has left the building!

Available Mase · 23 September 2018, 01:37 AM

I have never heard of such a thing and take a daily sauna with the watch on.

doramas · 23 September 2018, 01:45 AM

Thanks

OP, I don't think its too picky to wonder why your chronometer is not running within chronometer specs. Seems pretty reasonable.

That said, I would test it over a week to see what is the average.

Really, I do not believe that it has been meticulous. Thank you

Another day at +5. It seems to be stabilized

997.2 · 24 September 2018, 12:25 AM

I take my sub in the hot tub and sauna on a weekly basis and it’s fine

HORNBLOWER · 24 September 2018, 09:46 PM

Trapped air expands when heated putting pressure on seals etc. I don't wear mine in a sauna.

What a great line from PADI :

"A drift of a few seconds is hardly life threatening and no real concern unless you have {CCTS} constant checking time syndrome."

Luv it

FYI all of mine over the last 30years have been worn in sea, pools, saunas or steam rooms.... no issues yet

A sauna is hot, but not really at increased pressure. I wouldn't autoclave a watch (pressurized steam) but if you can survive it, the watch should do fine:)

Chilly Coconut · 25 September 2018, 02:00 AM

I detect a pattern. The first day your watch was +4, the second day it was +8. See if it’s +12 after day three and +16 day four. What this means is that your watch is gaining 4 seconds per day. Pretty decent timekeeping.
