Test procedure

• Readings taken on day 0 and day 7 are tested using a visual comparison system developed specially for this test.

• These readings taken on days 0 and 7 are compared with a reference time.

• After seven days, the watch must not have varied by more than one minute. Furthermore, the incrementation of all dial indicators (date, day, month, etc.) is tested.

Note

• All watches must be fully wound. Watches with a date function must be set to 26 February of a leap year. This setting is used to test the date change.

• Manually wound watches can be fully wound every 24 hours.

• Selfwinding watches must not be wound (manually) at any time during the test.

• The chronograph function must run during the first 24 hours of the test.
