A354 running fast

Post12 May 2012, 18:15

Ciao a tutti....i have a problem with the seiko calendar a354...the watch works fine but i noted that the time is running too fast... ( + 10 seconds in a day circa) :eek:
So what can i do to regulate it? Any tips?

Please help me.....i love this groovy seiko....

I must set the time with -2/3 minutes?

Simone,

I believe adding and subtracting from the clock is done with the trimming screw. Adam has the manual available on digitalwatchlibray.com, and the manual may have the layout of your module, and the exact place where the trimming screw is located on the module.

Anyway, try it out and let us know,

Simone,

I believe turning the screw to the right will speed up the clock,. and turning the screw "Left" will slow the clock down. Turn only a maximum of 1/4 either way, and monitor the clock, then adjust as necessary.

Normally, a trimming screw should never break. Did the screw just fall off the module? Did you turn the screw more than 1/4 or 1/2 left or right? Was it not moving at all, and you then used force? Let us know.
