I movimenti al Quarzo Bulova ad alta precisione mi hanno sempre affascinato: vedere la lancetta dei secondi che scorre come Quella di un meccanico è un bello spettacolo!
The frequency has fairly little to do with the accuracy. The Grand Seiko high accuracy movements use a high quality quartz crystal that resonates around the standard 32768 Hz. The chip is programmed in the factory to correct for frequency deviations depending on the temperature. The Bulova is accurate, but not quite as accurate as the Grand Seiko movements, at least my Bulova Precisionist isn't.
One of the reasons I started doing accuracy tests was watching a small Japanese UA-cam channel n which there wee , at the beginning, “just” two Grand Seikos and an atomic Citizen “Attesa”. Some of the Grand Seikos, even later, when other high end watches begun to be featured on the channel, had (have!) superb accuracy. Thanks for this comment!
That was expected...both of my DW290 are about a minute ahead in 2 months....those guys just want to live.... DW5200C 50 seconds ahead in 3 months, just GAB2100 Banana is 30 seconds late in 2 months, which is weird (that's bluetooth but I'm not connecting it)....DW5600 about 30 seconds ahead in 4-5 months. 15-20 G's from 3-30 seconds ahead in a month....Marlin 14 seconds ahead in 6 months, swiss ETA 6 seconds ahead in more than 6 months. good video
“Those guys just want to live “😂😂😂 great. It’s funny how despite all the differences in accuracy I’d love all the watches you mentioned. And by the way I’m of the party “has Bluetooth, but I don’t connect “‘too! Thanks for this comment!!!
Interesting however this does raise the question... Would this accuracy vary on multiple tests with the same watches? It seems plausible that multiple tests with the same watches might produce different results Thank you for the video
Oh yeah, I remember this! Should be interesting to see! This is a test on many different level actually. Module vs module and model vs model. Interesting results! The B640 seems to be super accurate. The results of the DW290 is still very good in comparison to an automatic! Now for the Greyman! If they want to cooperate haha! This should be interesting! Take care bro!
I have an old dw 290 and it's really inaccurate, relatively speaking. It easily gains or looses minutes over a month (even with a new battery). Given that it also has lost the ability to produce an alarm sound, it's really showing age tbf (have had it since 2010 and hammered it)
Still for the price, amazingly accurate. Awesome video!!
Indeed it is: cheap and accurate. Thanks for this comment!
If I relied on my dw290 I would always be early for appointments,😂
Yes! That’s the attitude: you gave me a reason to live the dw290 even more!
Thanks for this comment!!!
Great video, not all quartz are equals in accuracy, best are high frequency like the Casio H103 at 4mHz or the High Precision Bulova at 262 kHz

A beautiful vintage piece the Casio H-103, highly desirable!!!

@@Dynamics_Watch_Reviews we shall find out by… doing multiple tests! 😂 thanks for this comment Chris!!!

Yes it’s interesting how seemingly identical machines give different performances!
Thanks for this comment and have a great one Johan!!!
@@WUDN-WatchUDontNeed Indeed. Different results yet the same materials and the same duration. Thank you man!

Sounds like a defect
If I had a dw290 like that I would love it even more. It’d be my puppy with a missing ear or something like that.
Thanks for this comment!!!
Thanks I like the 290
Itysuch a cool, oddly shaped watch!
Thanks for this comment!
