OK, I've decided to test for myself the accuracy of the Spring Drive. Supposedly it has the accuracy of quartz but with a mechanical movement. So this morning I just set it dead on to the very second to http://www.time.gov. So, any guesses as to how far off it'll be in a week? Post them here! Kind of like "how many jelly beans are in the jar." My first guess is to go by the manufacturer's claim +/- 15 secs a month. So I'll say 4 second off. Any other guesses? |

It should be within 2 sec. after one month. So less than a second after one week. |

Agreed. Less than 2 seconds in a month. All manufacturers pad their accuracy so you can't return it if its 'out of regulation'. |
