I own one as well and its on my wrist 95% of the time. Time is always perfect worldwide, stopwatch, countdown timer, unkillable and water resistant to 200 meters. FWIW casio has wave-ceptor watched with hands that do the same.

The other watches are for when I'm at work and not wearing a t-shirt.

Still interested in the results of this test.

Thats an atomic watch. I have an atomic clock inside my home....

La Crosse clock... not very much money either.

I have been wearing my IWC 3717-01 for the last 7 days, at least 12 hours per day, and it is stored in the OEM box with dial up. So far, +1sec/day. I may keep wearing it this week to keep up the testing, but my LT M38 has been dormant for a few weeks now.
