Just purchased a brand new VSF 116610lv from trustytime and it gains almost 1 minute every 5 days. Needless to say I'm extremely disappointed and there's no one in my area that is willing to work on it. Any suggestions?

Brand new VSF 116610lv running very fast

So, if you attache your watch to a string and start whirling it around at ~99.99999904% of the speed of light, you'll perceive it running right on time according to this calculator
Man, that’s a bummer, my new 1226610 is gaining 2 seconds a day which is awesome, my Pepsi, not as good, gaining 15 seconds a day but still within most brands tolerance for a mechanical watch.

1 minute every 5 days is pretty good... that's like 12s/day.. not terrible....
1 day has 86400 seconds... so your watch only was wrong 12/86400 or 0.014% error..... per day
Anyways get it regulated... google it... it can go down to 1s/day...
But remember replica is replica..... you paid $500 for it... what does a $500 "swiss" watch get you lmao? A Tissot PRX has a accuracy range of -15s to +15/s day.....
There's variation to tolerance and manufacturing... your watch looks really good but was made in some Chinese sweatshop factory by underpaid workers who dont give a f***** you cannot compare it to a Swiss made movement in negative vaccum environment with extensive QC testing.....

20 seconds a day is pretty good for a knockoff Chinese watch made in a dirty factory- but VS movements in general can be brought under better regulation.
Go to the trusted watchmaker area of this board to find someone who can regulate it for you- but if you are expecting +/- 3 seconds all the time in all postions on a fake Chinese watch you are going to continue to be disappointed.
