What have been your experiences regarding the accuracy of the 007/009Js?
Thank you.
Thank you.
Well, mine is running at +6 secs in 24 hours. Right out of the box. I guess I am fortunate. On another note, I am at a point in my watch collecting career that:LES2900 said:mY Monster was the 1st to be regulated since I didn`t like the -14sec/24hours. After regulation, it was gainning 1 sec/48hours !!! Left it like that, and in about 2 weeks the movement "settled" for a more realistic value: +4 or +7 sec/24 hours. My 007 had to be regulated; It had 32sec/24hours. After regulating the movement, now it keeps about +5sec/24hours.
But boy!!! Are those 7S26 movt. a b!*ch to adjust !!!!
At that rate, you should be able to use positional regulation to keep it running spot on. That is, determine how much gain or loss you see during the course of the day while it's on your wrist, then determine the storage position that best offsets that loss or gain.seikodiver4ever said:Well, mine is running at +6 secs in 24 hours.

My Orient Star Revolver is one of the most predictable watches I've had in that regard. It will reliably gain time when stored dial up, and reliably lose time when stored crown up. By switching the position it's in when I'm not wearing it, I've been able to keep it within 3-5 seconds (+ or -) of the time on the USNO Master Clock website since I got it, which was about three weeks ago I think.
