I have an inexpensive No. 1000 timegrapher and when I put the Sub on I get the following graph. The bottom line of the graph has a lot of off beats or jitters. Honestly I don't know the correct terminology to describe what is happening, and I'm not really sure what the cause is.

That said I put my Seiko SKX007 on their and took a picture of that, just to illustrate that it's not the microphone or machine. I consistently get these types of graphs with this new Rolex and I get a nice clean graph with my Seiko.

What could be the cause, should I be concerned, and how should I proceed?



Was the test done on a full manual wind with a mainspring at max power-reserve.
