Re: SMP power reserve question

Thanks for your responses. It sounds like I'll test the reserve as suggested by Mark.

And yes, it was sent off to an Omega service center after the roadtrip. I also specifically requested that they tell me what went wrong so that I might be able to avoid the problem in the future. Of course, once I got the watch back, there was no mention of what went wrong or what work was performed.

: Marcel,

: A power reserve of 5.5 hours would be
: considered unusual. Have you had the watch
: for very long? If it's getting towards 3 or
: 4 years, it may be due for a service. Also,
: after your motorcycle road trip, did you
: have the watch looked at by an Official
: Omega Service Centre? There are times when a
: repairer fixes one problem, but
: inadvertently causes another.It's rare, but
: it does happen.
: I don't know what else to tell you based on the
: info you have given. But above all else, get
: it seen to.
