I had my Speedmaster serviced when I lived in Tokyo, and the shop sent me photos of the complete teardown process which was pretty cool of them. I was told at the time that the aim was to bring the accuracy to less than +5/0 per day. Many years later, mine is running at +6 as well, but only at the "dial up" position. It reports different numbers in different positions, so you have to average them all I suppose.
My brand new Rolex Sub runs 272 amplitude, +5 and 0.0 beat error. I didn't set a custom lift angle or anything I just had auto detect. Do you think this is accurate or should I contact Rolex? It's literally 3 months old.
Oh, that's tough. First off, auto-detect is okay. Those numbers look good for the most part. You're probably unsatisfied because you'd rather see it running 0 to +2 seconds instead of +5. I'm not sure how Rolex is measuring and certifying the watch, but I'm sure they're doing a better job than we are with this machine. Usually, people like you and me only measure the watch in one position (the upright) and think that's the end of it. No, our wrists are in a state of semi-perpetual motion as we walk, run, work, answer the phone, wash dishes, etc. Our hands are in multiple positions and angles. Rolex probably measures in multiple angles and comes up with an average from that. Don't think it's the end of the world, but they can easily take the case back off and adjust it if you really want them too. I don't think it's that big of a deal.
Keep in mind that these Chinese tools give good approximations of seconds gained/lost daily and can be off by 3-4 seconds a day from reality. Still, good economical tools for a general watch enthusiast assessment.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Really nice to know. Are you no longer in Tokyo?
Nice job Brother \G/
It’s best to de-magnify the watch as well, this can change the readings on the timegrapher
I think the Beat Rate -(28800 , 21600 ..) is calculate in 24 hours ( not one hour ) Thank you !
Sorry, it is per hour BPH . Thank you again !
