Panerai P.5000 in-house movement question?
I recently picked up a new Panerai Radiomir 609 with their in-house p.5000 movement. I had a 510 Luminor for awhile with the same caliber, but traded it off. I've found that I much prefer the Radiomir case shape. With that said, I'm curious as to the accuracy of the movement. I really have two questions...
1. How many seconds +/- should the movement be per day since it isn't COSC certified? 2. When it comes to precisely setting the time, since this movement is non-hacking do those of you with this watch typically hold the crown to "pause" the second hand or should this be avoided? I know this was the process with the manual-wind Speedmaster. I just thought I would ask to make sure I am following the proper procedures when setting the watch before attempting this. I know with some watches it isn't recommended to wind time backwards, but I think that may be a thing of the past? I remember with a Speedy, just the slightest amount of back pressure on the crown would effectively "pause" the seconds hand. |

I can't speak for the accuracy cause i never timed my 510. but i can only say there is no obvious timing issue on mine.
As for the non-hacking second hand, i learned to treat that as a "running indicator" and i enjoy seeing the running second hand. i never tried to sync it with anything. I learned to live without a running second hand from 112/176. but i do prefer 111/177/510 with the running second hand.
