So out of the factory, the watches maybe keeping good time, but the watches are "settling" at a much faster beat rate than anticipated.

It settling in and going faster after awhile does make sense. Hard to imagine gs actually regulating this watch to +12 and shipping it.

The others thing that always holds me back is the lack of local support here for it. At least with Rolex and omega if I have and issue the repairs are relatively quick. Sending it back to Japan for regulation would be a pain in the butt.
