Very confusing Timegrapher results
Can you spot the difference between the first and the second picture, and no, I do not mean the significant improvement in amplitude?
As it turns out, the only difference between the first and the second picture is that in the first picture the movement is mounted directly on the microphone stand, whereas in the second picture the movement holder is mounted on the microphone stand.
Again, the amplitude goes from bad to (sort of) acceptable when the movement holder is placed
The main reason I bought this used Seiko 5 Sports watch on eBay ($91/£66/€78) was that I wanted to try my hands at the classic Seiko 7Sxxx Japanese workhorse movement, housed in millions and millions of watches. In this case a calibre 7s36b. The watch was beat up, the colours on the hollows on the bezel were all gone, and the movement was definitely in need of a service. Anyway, I thought that if I could successfully service it, it could become a nice daily beater, and I would learn about Japane
