Really cool! When i got to sleep after oiling it it had a noticeable noise.In the morning I couldn't hear it first thinking it might have stopped over the night.Really curious to see how long will it take to eat the battery .
 
21 hours checkup, probably a full minute loss /day without adjustment and that's just the same precision with my ww2 Laco sport german Luftwafe 17 ruby watch...This watch might be able to get a 10 sec error in 24 hours...

Almost 2 minutes after e6 hours made me check it.Realized the balance was tilted with the whole mechanism by about 20 degrees instead of perpendicular to ground .Made it visinly straight ... chequed the battery showing a healthy 1.57v and gave it a new go.Next check in 24 hours!
