CITIZEN CB1120-50L
Hi Everyone
I purchased this Citizen Radio Controlled Watch.
Unfortunately the main minute hand is a fraction out on the indices/batons when the second hand hits 60 seconds. It's a fraction ahead on some and ok on others.
Anyone have the same problems with these watches. This is the main problem with a lot of quartz watches anyway .
But it's not a 50euro watch!!

Love watches, especially mechanical, hand wound. But lately I love the high end radio controlled 😊

use a protractor centered on the pinion to check if the indices are all 30 degrees apart. If it was old the gear slop would show at the end of the hand.
I have a Citizen Signature Flyback Chronograph and is also has a slight misalignment problem. The Chronograph minute sub dial has its hand slightly ahead by a half of a division. It is a $700+ watch, so it annoys me a bit when I look at it. But I've learned to live with it. It is not worth sending it out for adjustment.
I've seen that on any number of watches including ecodrive/RC watches. Life's too short to dwell on miniscule "percieved faults"
Any shots of the actual "problem?
😂. You have a point but I like things correct.

On a 7000dollar watch!! I would be very annoyed. Suppose I better live it.
Thanks for your comment
