I'll chime in. I too have a Robic 707 and BTW mine keeps time just fine. :D
Mine gains nearly 1 second a day. That means mine runs about
1/(24x60x60) seconds fast, which is about 12 millionths of a second
fast. That's (10x60)/(24x60x60) seconds gain in a 10 minute event,
which is about 7/1000 seconds.
I'm not worried about it. I just find it annoying given my Radio Shack
Talking timer is the most accurate clock I own... damn thing is almost
as stable as an atomic clock; I only have to set it for daylight
savings.
I know that one can get a Seiko adjusted and certified for about a
$50 USD service fee, as they are commonly used in labs. I'm not aware
of anyone trying to certify a Robic.
