Plus 2 after 36 hours.
That's not bad, and better than BLNR and LVc.

Plus 2 after 36 hours. That's not bad, and better than BLNR and LVc. That's unacceptable. It's supposed to be -/+ 2 after just 24 hours per the new spec.  maybe you aren't wearing it enough. Send it to me for a real QC test! |

Not making this up. Went to a bday party last night at a friend's house. One of the girls there had a rose gold watch on. Some mall type, fashion Quartz, but it looked good on her. We were playing a card game later into the evening and she saw my watch. She told her husband "look chip has a similar watch to mine. See it's okay for a man to wear one".
I nodded in agreement, and moved on.
I got a woman's watch lol

Simply priceless. Just word of advice, though, Chip: If you are going to start wearing dresses, at least have the courtesy to shave your legs first.  |

I remember when I got the DSSD - I was still finding stickers months later on/in the bracelet clasp.
As for nicknames - it has to have "red" in there somewhere.

Incredible accuracy for an incredible watch! It amazes me that they're able to achieve this.

I wonder why that is. Two of the movements should be the same and even the GMT movement is just a modded version of what's in the others. My Explorer II runs within COSC specs but nowhere close to these new standards (of the newer movements). Hey, just another excuse to give that Yacht-Master more wrist time!
