<VV> Clocks: One is Fast, One is Slow

[Geoffrey A Johnson]

Mike,
There is an arm in the time adjuster that bumps the mechanism when you 
adjust the time.  It cancels for one revolution (12 hours) when you first 
make an 
adjustment.  This way if you are changing or resetting the time and moving 
the adjusting arm a bunch, it does not keep adjusting the speed and make 
it super 
inaccurate.  Basically it will adjust the speed once every twelve hours.
  So when you bump the time 
forward, it, assuming it was running slow, speeds the movement up a touch, 
same going the other direction.
Eventually theoretically they will correct themselves.   The one in my 
Corsa is pretty accurate, but still, what more can you expect.
