Re: Questions about a speedy day/date

In Response To: Questions about a speedy day/date ()

: I just purchased an Omega triple date and have
: a couple questions.
: 1. It's running about 12 sec. per day slow, is
: that within normal limits for an auto?
: 2. Does the speedy band with the hidden clasp
: have any micro adjustment?
: Thanks,
: Matt

That model isn't a certified chronometer, so it isn't held to the COSC specs of -4 to +6 seconds per day. I'm sure a qualified watchmaker could regulate it to get it to keep better time, though. My local Omega AD's watchmaker only charges $25 for a regulation.

Regarding the bracelet, I do wish Omega had a fine adjustment feature, but they don't. You basically have to get the best fit you can using the right combinations of links and the half-link in the bracelet.
