Tip: if the movement hacks, hack it while adjusting! This will stop the mainspring and minimize the chance of any damage.

You’re absolutely correct, after I ruined 2 Invicta watches that I was regulating, it occurred to me to hack the movement while adjusting and I’ve had no more problems.

true but if they are very careful, they can keep adjusting as it runs until it is set. Also leaving it for a few minutes allows the movement to settle down.

Really nice reviews on your channel, Jonah! Btw, I noticed that the watch movement at 1:30 is different than the one at 3:40. The little brass colored pieces in the regulating levers was kind of a give away. Good tip (no pun intended) to brace the hand. Just a fraction of a millimeter can make a 10-15 second/day difference.

Great for beginners. Remember to tell them not to hit the spring or it is ruined. You should leave the back off and adjust it while on the timegrapher. Slowly just bump the lever a tiny bit always. I recommend cutting a little of the point of the wood or plastic pick off so you have a good flat side to move it. Should have done the beat error while in there. It is not that hard to do being the same on a different lever. I do both. I find changing the ms/beat changes the speed also.

I notice the time grapher holding the face up. My watch is +15 s/d face up or down. On edge, crown up/down, it is +/- 4 s/d. Wearing the watch is mostly on edge. Gravity affects the balance wheel.

Why not do the adjustments with the watch running on the timegrapher to monitor the effect in realtime (while remembering position error)? This is what I did when regulating my first watch today (Dan Henry 1970). Took me mere three nudges to get it from +17 to zero. So happy!

I tried this on a very cheap watch I bought online that was running -200 seconds! I opened up the back and the little regulating lever was in the "slow" portion of the regulator. So I pushed it with my spring bar tool toward the faster marker and checked again: +14 seconds. Okay. I could get it a bit more accurate still so I went to push the lever back toward the slow adjustment a bit and I was a bit hasty and didn't prop my hand against the table top for support and I heard a little "PING!" as the spring bar tool touched the balance wheel and brought it to a halt! As soon as I heard it I yanked my hand back knowing I may have done permanent damage and the watch resumed ticking away. I finished the regulating and got it to -6 seconds which is good enough for me. Luckily the watch seems to be no worse for wear so far but there's a reason I tried this with a cheap watch first.
