less frequent servicing, time will tell it

In Response To: Re: co-axial question? ()

I personnally think that what Omega claims has to be proven over the very long run. When you remark that you watch loses time then it says that it needs servicing. Were tests done in laboratories before claiming the 10 years interval service? My 1951 semaster cal 344 was serviced three times in 54 years and keeps very good time +3/+5sec per day and it is not a coaxial watch. The quality of the servicing and the adjustememnt of the watch as well as the quality of the calibre itself make the difference. I think after 15 years of daily wearing, a new caliber can be judged as fully reliable.
Just my opinion.
