: There have been multiple reported malfunctions
: of the Cal 3301/3303/3313 movements,
: including my own, on TimeZone.com. My
: DeVille Co-Axial Chronograph (cal 3313)
: malfunctioned about 4 months after I got it.
: I sent it to Bienne, Switzerland for
: Warranty Work and had it back in 47 days.

: I've heard that it's a relatively minor flaw
: with a fairly easy fix. A weak spring or
: something. I heard this from someone who had
: taken it to his watchmaker for the fix, so
: it's not independently verified by Omega.

: You've got a 2-Year Warranty and I would think
: the problem will pop up well before that, if
: at all.

Thanks Keith. So far, I have had NO such problem with the movement. Granted, I don't use it much, but when I do, it functions properly.

I will keep an eye on it
