Had my first go at regulating an actual wristwatch. New Seiko SNK809k2, had some beat error/slow rate out of the box that I didn’t necessarily like. Hoping for insight on how I did? Also wondering which positions are the most critical. See comment.

Making progress on my dad's old Seiko "Running Man" d138. It has taken some patience and a fair amount of reconstruction of corroded traces but I'm nearly there.
