Hour hand on the IWC looks oxidized/dirty, are you happy with that?

change Amplitude from 287 to 292

What do you mean by that?

 

[Kayzen]

What do you mean by that?

Rolex watches typically have a higher amplitude than other brands because of their efficient movement design. Amplitude is the angle created by the balance wheel's swing, and a healthy amplitude for luxury mechanical watches is between 270 and 310 degrees.

Hope this helps

I don't get it why you would request to change the amplitude. For my understanding, you can not tune it to a specific value as it is purely a result.

From what I read and pls correct me if I am wrong, It can be adjusted.

I was not sure want you meant first, but no, you can't request a specific amplitude. It is an result indicator, not an input.

How to Read Timegrapher Results!

I have had a few member reaching out in regards to the timegraph and how to read it. Repost from RWG. Beat Number Frequency, the vibration of a movement. The number of balance wheel swings per hour or how many times the watch ticks per hour. This is a preset, depends on the watch you order...

"You can adjust the rate of a watch using a timegrapher and the regulator. However, you can't adjust the movement of a watch to increase amplitude from the mainspring barrel."
