A couple months ago my dad passed on to me my grandpa's 1954 Seamaster. After examining the watch it seemed to be in perfect working order, however it seemed to be losing a bit too much time per day (about 30 seconds) so I decided to take it in to my local watch maker. I finally got around to taking it in today. The watchmaker told me that the case had actually never been openned before and thus over the 50 years of its life the watch had never been serviced in any way. He also added that the watch only needed a simple cleaning and a new spring to get it back to tip top performance.
In my eyes this is a wonderful testament to the wonderful quality of watches that Omega produces. After going 50 years without service, the watch is still only in need of a cleaning. When you buy an Omega you really are buying it for life and can plan to pass it on to your children and even your children's children.
