Automatic Gearbox Titanium bracelet: not keeping time

[Ryan_C]

Well, I finally was able to pull the trigger on this Automatic Gearbox a week ago. I was thinking it was running fast and low and behold, I reset the time to the second on Saturday evening. And looking at it today, Monday, I am already 5 minutes fast. Is this normal? I still can return, but are there next to none available for exchange?

Any others with a time keeping problem?

@shofzr ?



Maybe you are just way too fast for that watch and it can't keep up with you?

Typically non COSC automatic movement should be within 20-30 seconds a day, this one seems to be gaining around 120 seconds a day...

I understand there is no more to exchange it with, the fix could be as easy as a simple( for a watchmaker) regulation, or all the way up to a full movement service.

Now Being brand new I would think the regulation and or movement service would be covered, as taking it to someone other than an Oakley authorized service center would most likely void your warranty, I would keep that as a last resort.

Is your watch running fast?

...then you better go catch it.

Sounds like your watch has arms...

...and legs!
