Don't - thats within spec for a genuine standard grade ETA 2824. You can get it regulated, or it may settle in over time...Just started yesterday my new vsf , but it is gaining 10 seconds per day …

Congratulations - it’s 1 second outside of certified chronometer grade accuracy.

By the way, why do they get discrepancies with the timegraph indicators after the arrival of the parcel? I'm just curious how it works)

Because the timegraph gives a reading for one moment in time in one position, not a whole day in multiple positions.

Understood) And so the first time I noticed that they were in a hurry for 5 seconds, when I wore them for 10 hours a day, then took them off and put the dial up on the table at night. We hurried every day for 5 seconds and got up after 48 hours. Yesterday I tested it, started it at 20 revolutions and put it on the table with the dial up. Today, too, they are already in a hurry for 5 seconds. But whatever, it doesn't bother)

By the way, I was wondering if it makes sense to look for an ARF bracelet? Is it much better in quality?
P.S. There is an artifact in my bracelet - a Chinese hair
(the film is removed)

If you like being parted from your money unnecessarily then by all means have at it! The VSF clasp and bracelet is extremely good. Even if you got a slight incremental improvement it wouldn't be worth the roughly 150 to $200 it would cost.By the way, I was wondering if it makes sense to look for an ARF bracelet?

What did you do to waterproof it? Just curious

I pressure tested it after I got it and it passed, so pretty much nothing but confirming it was waterproof from the factoryWhat did you do to waterproof it? Just curious
