They don't get much better when it comes to time keeping

Cheers Mads

Yeah they sound a bit hit and miss

Glad you liked the video the Grand Seiko 9F movement is a real stunner with interesting if it could be fitted in the UX case

Time Out Watches yes, I agree! For 30 years my every day “tool watch” was my trusty Submariner. Only last year did I start to rediscover watches anew after discovering the craziness around Rolex prices and availability. I naively thought I could go to my local AD and get a GMT Master II. Oh how the World has changed-and I resent it. The net result has been to re-educate myself on watches-and re-examine what is important to me in a watch. The quest continues! Thx again.

@@gilbertrose7147 My collection at the min is mostly Rolex Seiko and Sinn at the min I did tell my wife I wasn't going to be buying anymore watches but its like a disease :)

@@ClickSpringReview Yeah. But it's better than sticking needles in your arms or sucking a white powder up your nose! (Not that I've done any of those things - my wife kicked me out and left me exposed to my basic instincts - eat what I want, go where I want, buy what I want, spend as much time in the pub as I want, you get the picture.)

It's a cruel world! 😆😆😆😆😆

Shipmate That should be interesting Ive been really into Seiko at the min I’ve got the MM200 Great Blue Hole and just last weekend the new MM300 in Blue that came with a sapphire crystal I believe that’s a first for the watch

Wow thats very impressive

@@ClickSpringReview Indeed. As you know, It's luck of the draw. If you watch Greg Anderson's couple of videos on watch accuracy, he tested dozens ranging from $5 to over $1000 and the winner was a $15 Casio. Another guy showed his two Snowflake Springdrive GS (? +$3000) side by side one was running 0.5 sec/mth the other 10 sec. Great vids, keep at it.

I just changed the battery in the Tuna and it went up to something like +4s a month was +2 before John

100% agree with I was trying to explain this to someone the other day , Only the Sinn's and Tuna I've been wearing and as it was over summer months its not so bad but come the winter I bet we would see an even bigger difference . I checked the Tuna and Sinn UX a few days ago ,the Tuna is now 4s out were as the UX is 2s

Could be or then again the mains coming into your house powering the alarm clock isnt always that stable , People think quartz watches are always dead on and a lot are but not all thats for sure

Hi Sir do you think its really to low as your the first person to say this , But in all fairness this is an old video of mine and now I have a full light and mic set up so maybe you will find the newer videos better

Its amazing some many guys think quartz watch are always super accuracy but this is not the case , should be interesting to check them out in another 3 months times

Seems a typical quartz accuracy is +/-15s a month. I consider that super accurate. Do the math. It's like 99.999% accurate, or maybe better as memory serves. Quartz crystals don't run at exactly 32768 hz. I have read they run the crystals a bit fast, then use compensating skipping of impulses every so many seconds. "Inhibition compensation" maybe it's called. But they still change oscillation with temperature. Really high accuracy quartz watches can be within 10 seconds a year. To do that, they use high rate crystals, like 8 times faster. And temperature compensation.

Interesting people always think Quartz watches are spot on I think this year my Tuna has come out a sec better than my Sinn UX

Yes it has to be sent back to Sinn it costs £225 or £250 and that covers postage there and back plus you get a 2 year warranty with it turn round took around 3 weeks the last time I had to do it , Battery lasts around 7/9 years

I just used a small air blower tool myself I wouldn't use WD40 myself but if it worked for you fair play Sir

@@ClickSpringReview I've used (experimentally) many products on various quartz movements including lighter fluid and 100% alcohol. The sensitive bits are all hermetically sealed so there was never any damage as long as the fluids are thoroughly cleaned and dried after. I hesitate to tell people because it sounds crazy. :Þ

MichaelAChang that’s fair enough sir I’m going to replace the battery again but this time with a branded type and have a closer look at the movement

So I gave it a try but I used a toothpick to apply the WD40 and clean the small brass plate and wow it looks liked it may of worked , I'm impressed Thanks

@@ClickSpringReview Glad it worked for you! Another watch saved!

Jan Hi Jan the battery type is a SR43SW I can’t remember which brand I went with but never buy a cheap one it’s not worth it

@@ClickSpringReview Thanks very much for letting me know! I really appreciate it.

Hi David no offence taken Sir. The reason I included this model is I hear many people say, no matter the cost of an quartz watch it will alway be more accurate than any mechanical watch can ever be , So I wanted a good price range form £10 up to £2000 I'm sure if I hadn't include it some people would of said my cheap watch is amazing accurate without every testing it On my channel I've reviewed watches priced as low as £100 alway the way up to £35k so far

@@ClickSpringReview Hi, Click Spring. Your reply prompted me to go and look at my collection of obscure watches. All my watches are housed in a glass fronted display cabinet. The more expensive ones reside in their own display boxes but the cheapos are housed in a couple of reconfigured (10 to 8 compartment display boxes with drawers underneath the compartments for storage of spares and documents. The watches don't do justice to the quality of the boxes which are of a polished mahogany appearance with quality brass stay hinges. I'm pretty sure they aren't mahogany but still beautifully finished.). On to the watches, none of which are working because the batterys have gone flat, except one which is a mechanical watch and I've just wound it up and set the time to check its accuracy. They all came from Amazon. So here goes Weide - 4 pushers and crown 30m we WH - 1104 Jaguar - triangular shape SS mechanical movement 2 pushers to set date, day Crown to adjust time and wind movement. Two Time - oblong shape with clock face, strip reader for day and round face for timer/stop watch all in the oblong. 3 pushers, brass coloured case. Skmei - 5 pushers and crown. One pusher lights letters and numbers in digital windows. SKM-1155 Infantry - body in aluminium and brass movable bezel. 30m wr 2 pushers and screw down crown. Zeiger - ltd. Edition in ss Japan movement 4 pushers and crown All the watches have flat batteries except Jaggar which is mechanical wind up (not auto). I had a skeleton watch without a manufacturers name on it which was also wind up but gave it to a mate because his watch broke and I felt sorry for him. Wish I hadn't because he has never worn it and went and bought a cheapo plastic jobby to wear.

@@davidashton2361 Sounds good David which is your Favourite? I've a fair few watches myself most of which I've reviewed on my channel

Really Rolex are the only brand to offer + or - 2s a day even my vintage modes are when in that , when was it serviced? and have you checked for magnetism?

Rhett Harris being Quartz sir it doesn’t have a hair spring so I don’t think that would be it but worth a try maybe 👍🏻

which are them sir ?

@@ClickSpringReview Luminox XS.3001 +.2, Pagani (VH31) -.1, Casio 210H-1AVCF +.3, Nixon Megatron +.8. All seconds per day.

Interesting stuff the .8 and .3 are pretty bad my Seiko Tuna and UX and still pretty spot on , cheers for the info Sir

@@ClickSpringReview yeah the .3 is a 25 dollar Casio and the .8 is an LCD from 2004. I was shocked how fast its running. Also noticing that quartz runs slightly slower on wrist with the small increase in temp.

@@tk423b Quartz is very sensitive to temperature as it affects the frequency its oscillats at , thats why you can get thermocompensating models like my Sinn UX its a cool but of kit

Unfortunately with big brands comes big bills Terry but out of interest which Omega is it you have maybe I cant find you a new movement for it and save you some money . As regards to the Secondas they make solid watches I just serviced an old early 60s mechanical model

Hi it is a seamaster quartz with an omega 1342 movement they have a rather fancy way to set time. But it was never as accurate my Sekonda.any movement that old needs cleaning and lubricating. I do not even know if that movement can be regulated. Thanks

Ive done some research and the movement does have a few problems the main being the stepper motor and battery terminals and turns out the movement is incredibly hard to get hold off

@@ClickSpringReview it seems Omega have them and can fix them, but will not supply them to anyone else, which seems to be their policy now.
