EDIT 7/21: Just room this in and in the machine it's a -4s/day. I guess wearing it daily for a month (a few hours/day) has evened things out quite a bit. OP:Just got a new Tactical Frog, which uses a HangZhou 2565A movement. Anyway, on day one it was + 10 minutes after 24 hours. In the 2 days since, it's seeming to settle down. Is this normal? Also ... how trustworthy is this app (saw a guy on YouTube using it)? The actual time seems to be more accurate (only a few minutes off overnight) Taken on May 21 at 1014am Attached File May 21 at 15:37 Attached File May 21 at 15:38 (oriented the watch differently) Attached File |

Send it back. If it’s off by MINUTES per day, there’s a problem and it’ll never resolve itself on its own. Timegrapher results can help you to diagnose why, but the fact that the watch is that far off right out of the box means the watch needs repair. It’s hard to tell what the issue is from your pics - you need to test at different orientations (crown up, crown down, dial up, dial down, etc.) and the phone app timegraphers are notoriously fickle. |

So the company said it would be oK if a local guy did an adjustment (vs sending it back for them to work on). I've been out of town for a month and just got back, so still not 'fixed.' It's been holding steady around a minute a day, so I've just been adjusting it occasionally during the week (had 2 other watches to wear). |
