    Thanks, Aaron.
    I thought that there may have been some micro-brands that were doing their own.

    RGM is also mostly reworked movements. I thought there were only a couple tourbillon that were in-house.

    I think that is correct.
    I found a decent amount of "drama and speculation" when searching to see what they were doing with their movements.
    But as far as I know they have made at least a few.

    Ride safe,

    How accurate should a watch be? I had set my new Nomos to match my iPhone and its been running for 2 weeks and has lost about 5 seconds. Is that pretty reasonable?

    That's pretty good. Check cosc requirements.

    5 seconds in 2 weeks? That's as good as it gets. Mechanical/autos can lose or gain as much as 30 seconds a day.

    David at the Scottsdale Omega Boutique did me a solid and sent it to me 'Overnight Saturday Delivery' at no additional cost. This thing is even more gorgeous in real life! :)

    You are the one that first brought this beautiful timepiece to my attention. For better or for worse.

    Now you have to live with that. :D

    Yeah, ummm, my Rolex is way out of spec but I don't wanna cough up $400 to bring it back into spec and get it tuned up. :D

    Yeah, mine must be way out of whack then. My 007 loses 15 seconds a day or so.

    One night I came home hammered and should have stayed off Amazon. Now I have a $150 timing machine that I have no use for.

    I used it to regulate one of my seikos once. Beyond that, useless. Anybody wanna buy it?
