I´ve understood from this forum and Omega resellers that the Seamaster 300M automatic needs maintenance approximately every 5 years and it then needs to be sent to Omega who will take it apart, lubricate it etc. Since I want an Omega which should have the smallest amount possible of maintenance but still high quality I´m considering the quartz 300M (not for the higher precision though). Am I correct in that choice from a maintenance and quality perspective? Apart from the regular battery change and water proof check, what maintenance should I expect that a quart 300M would need? Also every 5 years, and do I then need to send it to Omega as well? Could I also expect from a quartz 300M that it would “last for a lifetime”?
