I purchased a B&M Classima 8688 in Dec 2016 and I couldn't be happier w/ the watch (my first luxury watch!) ... except that it runs way fast.
I measured it against an iPhone app and I see a consistent ~23 sec/day. I read somewhere that 2-6 sec is expected for an automatic mechanical watch.
The authorized service centers in my area tell me to contact the place I purchased from (Macy's) and have them ship the watch for adjustment. So far so good, but I hear that it takes 6 weeks (apparently, watches go to Dallas, where B&M has a service center).
How do others deal w/ this?
I also read somewhere that one should allow the watch to "break in" for some time before sending it to be opened. If so, how long should I wait before shipping it to B&W for an adjustment?
Cheers!
