In Response To: interesting in your experience with 1120 calibers ()

: Dear friends, I'm interesting in your
: experiense with 1120 cal.
: How it works after 3-5-7 years(before
: servicing), and how is , age of watches
: influence and changing watch's accuracy ?
: Thanks
: All the best.

I've had my Bond SMP (full-size) 2531.80 for exactly three years now. The only thing I had done to it was a simple regulation that cost me $25. It always ran witin COSC specs from day one, but it was running 4-5 seconds per day fast, and after regualtion it now runs on average 1.5 seconds per day fast. Needless to say, I'm EXTREMELY pleased with this watch. It sees the most wrist time and is also kept on a winder, so this 1.5 second average is based on the combination of both wrist time and time on the winder.

The 1120 may not have a "high pedigree" movement, but it does what it's supposed to. That's all I can ask of a watch.
