Just my opinion, but once you have a mechanical watch, such as an Omega Seamaster, the cost of ownership will not matter to you. If I had to service my 2531.80 every year and spend $300 to do so, I would.
I would just buy another Omega so that when one is gone, the other would be on my wrist.
Now John did bring up another point, and that was about the Co-Axial movements, being serviced every 10 years ($30.00 a year if you break it down, $0.58 a week), but as I am sure John will testify, the Co-Axials are more accurate than the non-coaxials, and they are a little more expensive as well, but if it is time accuaracy you are worried about and serviceing, that may be the way to go.
Just my two cents...
