Hi, just a newbie query on watch accuracy for celestial. My watch consistently gains 1 second per 24 hrs. I would welcome opinions on whether to leave it as is because the error is known or should I get a watchmaker to try and adjust the error to zero? Is it personal preference? Any help appreciated.
