First of all. Is this the new Milgauss? Parachrom Blu watches seem to start off a little slow from the factory especially if it's left in the watch winder. Is the watch more than 4 seconds slow per day? Are you wearing it and it's slow, or is it on a watch winder and it's slow. Is it equal number of seconds per day? (in the two days you've owned it) Did you give it a good 40 winds of the crown? That would put it at a full wind. No need to worry about over winding.

Lastly, it's 2 days old. Let the watch settle in, relax and enjoy the watch. If it's really out of spec, take it to your dealer or an Authorized Service Center and have it adjusted.

Congrats on the new watch.
You make good points, but that is a little harsh, IMHO. Many people buy Ferrari 360's and do not know that the specific output of the engine is one of the highest of any normally aspirated engine. Similarly, many people buy Rolexes but are not aware of what the internal parts are, let alone an IMPROVEMENTS made VERY RECENTLY to them.

Perhaps a little more tact would be considerate?
