New Watch "Running In" - Accuracy Query

I just got my new 510, replacing a 112 I lost. In this 1st week it was off 10 minutes +/-.

I have read there can be accuracy issues with the p5000 movement.

I've also read new watches may need to run for a few months before accuracy can be assessed. This true?

I got the 510 last Friday so haven't hit 8 days yet. Nor have I properly monitored how/when the big chunk of inaccuracy came from ie. start of the 8 day cycle, mid point or towards the end - what's "typical"?

I'll start watching how it performs more closely. Love the watch though, more than my 112 (which was as accurate as my Rolex Sub).

Either way, great to be back in the club. Was without for 4 months until I could source a replacement - Jomashop as NZ stock is minimal with only one dealer in NZ.

This happens during the first 24-48 hours after a full wind. I had a 560 and sent it in for warranty service to fix but they never fixed it and said it was fine, twice. The p5000 movement is garbage and OP won't own up to it and rectify the issue. Pity

I have a PAM 590 with the P5000 movement and mine only loses 10s per week. Maybe I got lucky...or you got a lemon?
