Re: Seamaster Chronometer
In Response To: Seamaster Chronometer ()

: I recently purchased an Omega Seamaster Professional
: Chronometer in Switzerland. Whenever I take off the watch
: at night, the next morning the action has stopped and I
: have to reset the watch. I thought kinetic movement was
: supposed to wind the watch to function for 47 hours or so
: (?). Also, I am an avid diver, so I am planning to use the
: watch for that purpose. Has anyone had any negative diving

: appreciated. Thanks.

I'm not trying to sound ridiculous, but have you fully wound your watch prior to wearing it? After that, daily wear should keep it running. Just a thought.
