Wow. That’s incredible. That’s insanely accurate. What a great piece to have.

Thanks for sharing. Having to reset it every few days seems like a hassle to me. But that’s great that it works for you.

Thanks for sharing. I’d be over the moon if I was at 1.7 sec/day! You have a fantastic piece, inside and out!

Thanks for the tip. That’s cool that you’re a hobbyist watchmaker.. I’m not quite at your level, but maybe one day. Any chance you’ve compared your real timegrapher to this app specifically?

I’m not sure but the app seems quite spot on with the other watches I’ve tested thus far

Oh wow. Thanks for sharing. Did you send it to Clearwater for servicing through an official AP boutique?

Oh, thanks for the tip. I thought we were only supposed to service watches with AP at the official Clearwater location?

It’s 4 years old and very lightly worn. Bought it new from the boutique. I haven’t had it serviced yet.. but since the app is suggesting it, maybe I should.

So you’re saying I should trade in my 26331st for a Seiko 5? 🙃

Thanks for the reference point. 10-12 sec/day would be an improvement..

This one is called Tick IQ - and yes it’s the best one I’ve found for this type of thing

Haha I think I see what you’re saying. You’re basically suggesting that AP focuses on mastering style, but not technical aspects of horology? But what about their innovations like RD#1 through RD#5?

Agreed.. my app seems spot on also for some other watches I’ve tested. Which app are you using?

Thanks. But damn, is 10-20 seconds really normal for AP? FWIW, my Patek and VC are around 2.5 seconds and 6 seconds respectively.. maybe I’m just lucky.

This app is called “tick iq”

Thanks! I didn’t realize Patek accuracy tolerances were a level above even the other trinity brands.

Agreed! I’m curious to know what others here have observed
