Why are consumer-grade quartz watches (deliberately set?) fast?

nadcixel...@aol.com (NadCixelsyd) — Wed, 12 Dec 2009 15:03:04 UT

Let me digress: When I was a child some 60 years ago, consumer-grade
watches were accurate to about twenty seconds per day. Then, Bulova
invented the Accutron with a tuning fork, which was accurate to two
seconds per day. Thirty (+/-) years ago, quartz watches typically had
an accuracy of better than one second per day.

Hello ...
I am writing in reference to my E.N. Welch steeple clock.
I purchased it at an auction, and then about a year and a half ago, I
took it to a clock shop to get it to run. It was $260.00 to have the
clock overhauled/repaired.
I love the clock and want to keep it in working order.

Instead of a spring ring, there was a curved wire with the a bend at the
tip.
The bent tip fits into the base of the watch and then wraps about half way
around.
The free end acts as the click stop.
