Ahhh, ok. Makes sense. You’ve had some crappy customer experiences and you think the timegrapher made them that way? Probably not. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

It is a certain type of person that buys a timegrapher for their watch hobby. Usually that type is plagued with OCD. I don't like dealing with OCD customers.

I think you took my ‘little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing’ comment a bit too literally. But generally speaking, most people don’t bother to do the reading required to understand what’s going on. |

I realize it is a figure of speech, and took it as such. I just think these discouraging suggestions are not helpful for someone that wants to learn. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

In the context of the OP where all we are looking for is a print out of the positional error so they can rest their watch accordingly, I would suggest going to a watchmaker over buying a machine. |

Fair point. My time is valuable and having a tool like this saves me a trip to a watchmaker to get this kind of information. If I only had one watch, it may not be a big deal. I do agree that for someone who doesn’t really have an interest in learning about how a watch works, owning a timegrapher doesn’t make practical sense. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I experiment with my watches, diff dial positions and night and note the difference. each watch is different. once u figure out what the watch does in various positions, u can be neurotic like me, check the watch against the atomic clock then place it accordingly each night. 8 or so watches lined up in different positions. i LOVE it
