New SKX007 running fast
Just picked up a SKX007, noticed it's running 40 seconds fast a day.
My question is, are these watches easy to adjust the accuracy. I don't expect Rolex like accuracy but can live with 10, 15 seconds a day fast. Sent from my SM-G975W using Tapatalk |

Around $25 on tools from Amazon and 20 minutes on Youtube will enable you

The accuracy should be easy to adjust, just buy a case back opening tool, and then use a toothpick (literally) to move the lever that changes the usable length of the hairspring If you see a video about it like Adam suggested, you’ll know what lever I’m taking about It has a positive sign (+) on one side and a negative sign (-) on the other Then you move the lever to the negative side to slow it down Put the watch back on for idk, maybe 2 weeks Get the average seconds per day again Then repeat until you’re happy with the result! |
