This issue is different so as to notice it. The first time I saw it I was very surprised and thought I had made a mistake, but after a few times of it happening I realized its a problem, but since I had taken it back twice, I didn't bother anymore, and now I see that others have it.

My 15 year old Daytona performs better than this BLRO.
How much was it losing a day, what was the state of the mainspring when you noticed it was losing. Was the watch on a machine winder, worn, or off the wrist when you noticed it losing a few seconds.
