How to regulate the isochronism fault by adjusting the position of the balance-spring
This caliber has the Etachron system for fine regulation of the isochronism fault, which is the same
design used for both Cal. 7S-B series.
Wh

By making a clearance of the balance-spring smaller, the decline curve of the instantaneous rate
gets shallower.
