How to adjust watch time accuracy and deviation?

　　When wearing a watch, running deviations are a relatively common issue. As long as the deviation is not too large, there is generally no need to worry. So if our watch has a time deviation, how should we adjust it? Below, Xiaoya shares some handy tips for adjusting watch time deviation.

　　Methods for adjusting watch time deviation

　　1、Adjustments can be made if the date changes during the daytime—if you find that the date changes around noon, it generally means the watch time is fast or slow by 12 hours. For example, if it is actually 11 in the morning, but the watch shows 11 in the afternoon, you simply need to advance the hour hand by a full circle, changing the afternoon to morning. This situation is relatively common, with about a 50% chance.

　　2、To extend the service life of the watch, many timepieces adopt a slow-change mechanism, changing gradually around midnight. It is generally normal for the change to complete before 2 in the early morning, and some watches finish by 4 in the early morning. Take the Sea-Gull M186SP I am currently wearing, for example.

　　3、Please avoid adjusting the date between 22 and 2 (some watches 20 to 4), as this can easily cause damage to the watch and incorrect date switching. In other words, for mechanical watches, the laboratory suggests trying to adjust the time during daylight hours.

　　4、Different watch models require different adjustment methods, but factors of morning and afternoon must be taken into account when adjusting any date-function watch.

　　5、Generally, mechanical watch time should be adjusted clockwise. Adjusting anti-clockwise may cause deviations in the hand alignment. Pay special attention to this; watches are typically worn on the left wrist and adjusted with the right hand, where turning forward is clockwise.
