Yes, last time I wound it ~80 times and it ran for 64 hours. So definitely an improvement. I haven't run another test (want to get some time on wrist, not just in my desk drawer), but am planning on trying it again after 100 winds.

I've just been winding it up and writing down the time I set it aside, and then check later to see what time/date it stopped at, which allows me to calculate how long it took.
My friend got one, and I think it looks so much better in person than in any online pics I've seen; in-person, the blue dial has a little more 'brilliance' to it but also slightly lighter in shade compared to pics. At first glance I thought he had gotten a blue sub. I couldn't keep my eyes off of his wrist. Had never been tempted to get one before then, but now I'm considering it for my next purchase.
