100thmonkey · 23 April 2009, 02:51 AM

My first test drive lasted 8 days & 14 hours exactly! I Think I fully wound it but not 100% but thats its more than it quoted as lasting!!!

Just a few days into another test run so Ill let you know

WatchTimes · 23 April 2009, 04:22 AM

You suck!
Well look back, I did this test before I sent it in if you
all recall and got either just over or under 10 days if I recall...

As I said, my results were posted before you guys planned the test :p

haha

Launch Mini · 23 April 2009, 04:30 AM

I cannot let my 233 actually stop running.
Call it OCD, but any of my date watches MUST keep running.

sbardy69 · 23 April 2009, 01:09 PM

just picked up a 233k today from my ad... count me in.

Launch Mini · 23 April 2009, 01:12 PM

Tonight I will winder er up fully & let er rip.
It will be tough, I may break on the 9th day. When I first got it , I let it go 9.5 days.
I know it outlasts my 190.

robertino233 · 23 April 2009, 01:57 PM

Someone needs to " on your mark , get set , wind " us all at the same time. Maybe something like May 1st at noon perhaps .
