Just skip to the end if you wanna see the results. Testing a bunch of automatic watches and one mechanical watch on timegrapher app on the phone. "Watch Accuracy Meter".

This channel is about watches. I like watches, but I am no expert or collector and everything I say is just my personal opinion. I just simply had an idea of having fun by running a youtube channel about my experience with the watches I buy. So I set the budget of a 1000 euros and started the channel. This is why I flip most of my watches, because I have to stay within my budget while introducing new watches to the channel. And that is why all the watches you see on this channel are the cheap ones as well.

@jackMcRyder 2 года назад

Those little triangles are the other noise it picks up, like from outside, window, rooms or when you hit the table or you talk. …so don’t worry about them; or, keep it quieter.

i really like your selection of watches, i'm a sucker for automatic and chronograph watches myself

@WesWatchRoom 2 года назад

Tried this myself and found it to be all over the place in terms of accuracy. The best for that is a timegrapher but those things are expensive. Wish someone would make a more affordable one.

@endurojimmy3109 7 месяцев назад

The problem is that it relies on the quality of your phone's microphone. I actually bought a remote microphone to use with it, and it is greatly improved. Thinking about it, there's only 3 parts to something like a timegrapher, 1. Transducer (in this case, the microphone) 2. Software (which will analyse the input and produce timestamp data). 3. The display. So logically, with a better microphone, I would have thought this has to be as accurate as any other timegrapher. I think it's fine.

I have this app. Works great for me. It's good to check error crown up and crown down. That's closer to how we actually wear the watch. That's my complaint with time Graphers. They don't test crown up/down.

the beat error is the important so you have to ajust it to 0.0 1.3 is alot

@MxRyder19 Год назад

True. Those jewels has to be aligned perfectly. The tic and the toc must be equal to one another in order to get the most precise time keeping.

Is it safe placing the watch right next to the phone? I’m concerned about magnetizing the watch.

it would be ridiculous if it would not be safe

@Sinisterg60 9 месяцев назад

Keeping the watch so close to phone makes me nervouse of magnetising my wathes...

@noice9709 2 года назад

I've been told that using a smartphone app can magnetize a watch if used repeatedly to regulate a watch. Is that true? Anyone have personal experience with this?

@joeycan6801 2 года назад

Nice video, but unless you have an expensive watch that has been adjusted in different positions at the factory, you will always get different readings in different positions, plus if you want accurate readings you need to get a real time grapher, and when using your app if you talk while checking your watches you will get incorrect readings and a very noisy/messy graph...... good job overall

@TomasWatchReviews 2 года назад

Thank you. I might get timegrapher one day, but as you said it is kinda pointless with cheap watches. Will see.

@@TomasWatchReviewsBut if you have a lot of those watches, they are not cheap, might still make sense for a time grapher. Then you can try regulating them.

@snakepitsam Год назад

You want accuracy? get HAQ watches +-5-10 secs /YEAR! other than that even COSC recognizes +-5sec /day as a chronometer. Remember there are 86,400 secs per day. Even 20-30/86,400 per day gain or loss is actually insane.

@TomasWatchReviews Год назад

sorry, don't know what any of those words mean.

@AvidUTuber 2 месяца назад

Why are you talking while using a timegrapher app and expect it to be accurate?? The best way to use it is with a connected microphone. Enclose both watch & mic in a container to limit noise pollution

@peha524 Год назад

You don't wear a mechanical watch for the accuracy. If you want worlds most precise watch, choose a quartz movement. But quartz watches are soulless....you wear a mechanical watch because it's a littlle piece of tecnological wonders, and if you are a bit interested, then you can see how every part works together. It's the same with ppl buying vintage cars. They are just more good looking than every new car.

@oscardom__ Год назад

soulles??? don't mention the cal 0100 to a mechanical fanboy lmao

@StyxYRenegade Год назад

I still would like the mechanical watch to at least not lose more than 1 min a day tho

@Saint789 2 года назад

I don't recommend using this app. In order to measure the ticking, you have to get your watch close to a phone - which can make your watch magnetized.

@MattGDesign 2 года назад

I was going to comment the same thing, all those magnets!

@karlomyduck8220 2 года назад

only powerful magnets in your phone are speakers and vibrator which are not powerful enough to magnetize the movement. I don't even know if they are strong enough to affect the movement in it's close proximity

@wabbitpoop 2 года назад

Did you ever compare the app to a real timegrapher?

@TomasWatchReviews 2 года назад

no, would be very interesting.

@touch_master721 7 месяцев назад

Sorry to tell you, BUT that app have option to choose in what position you have your watch set up.. is it face up, or face down... You didnt choose that when you measure. So, you r results are INACCURATE.

@TomasWatchReviews 7 месяцев назад

@matthewbishop9342 20 дней назад

This app is nothing more than useless. Its a gimmick at best. Absolute rubbish

@damyr 2 года назад

That's one of the main reasons why I don't like mechanical watches. +5-30 seconds error per day? That's nothing but an useless broken piece of junk. Not to mention sensitivity of movement and additional hassle with servicing. You don't wear a mechanical watch, mechanical watch wears you.

@TomasWatchReviews 2 года назад

sometimes I feel that way, but sometimes I want them just as a toy. Overall I prefer quartz too.

@waris3732 2 года назад

Hahah good one! Mechanical watch wears you😂

@balthazarbeutelwolf9097 2 года назад

Well, 30 seconds a day means: this needs servicing. What I don't like about quartz is that the battery runs out without warning, and it usually happens when you least need it. Mechanical watches tend to give you some warning, they first run badly, before they stop working. At home and work, I keep myself a couple of super-cheap quartz watches in reserve, but normally use a mechanical one. I also would not necessarily trust this app - for one of my watches it claims an inaccuracy of 15s/d when it actually (meaning: you set the precise time, you check 5 days later, divide by 5) is a tenth of that.

@damyr 2 года назад

@@balthazarbeutelwolf9097 Battery running out after several years is not so big of a hassle. It can be fixed in about 5-10 minutes, even by yourself. Analog Casio watches have inbuilt warning for battery running out, as the second hand starts to tick every 2-3 seconds, instead of every second. Anyway, there are more and more models with solar charging, so you don't need to worry about battery for decades. But when wearing a mechanical watch, you need to worry about literally everything... even a slight kick with a hand on a table can break its internal mechanism.

@@balthazarbeutelwolf9097 well I have bigger fear of mechanical watch showing bad time than I fear of the battery dying out..
