Just had to share this with you all.
I have a white and a black helmet Seiko chrono.
The wore the white one on Saturday for a wedding I attended.
It is maybe a year since I last wore it and it 'stuck' a bit for the first hour or two, always in the same 'place' with the second hand coming up to the hour.
Anyway, I carried on wearing it regardless of the loss in time, kept re-adjusting it and didn't care too much about the occasional hassle.
By about 3 hrs in to wearing it, it had smoothed itself out and dusted off the cob webs and ran 'like clockwork'.
I took it off that night and laid it down, with the expectation that I'd be lucky if it lasted till the morning, bearing in mind it's stuttering stop start of the afternoon.
Nope - it ran without being picked up until 1.45pm TODAY!!! A whopping reserve of 38 hrs approx.
I find it pretty amazing. Is this what other people would expect or does this surprise you?
