I don't know if its pushing it in too far, but because the available batteries do not have a raised contact, clear of the case? I'm not keen on the idea of soldering to a battery, but possibly stick a small washer or similar metal spacer on with conductive paint or adhesive, plus a nylon washer around it? -
Agree with Tom, a timegrapher shows more than regulation. Such as beat error. Also with a timegrapher you can regulate in different positions to get a better average.

Welcome Bob, enjoy the forum.

Thank you that was an interesting article. I definitely could have pushed the battery in too hard, thus shorting it out on the case. The 'switch' on the keyless works is another possible candidate as the movement is slightly loose in the case and something on the dial side could be shorting as well. I will probably need to dive in to giving it a service and try and overcome some of the problems as the article author did.

Best is to combine the 2, timegrapher regulation 48 and 72 hours after servicing then wear for a week to confirm or return to regulation as you have done above. The timegrapher will get you to a good standard and has the bonus of showing if there are any residual issues, however is only part of the story when practical timekeeping is thought about. Tom
