: I had pretty much decided
: to get the Automatic when my diving
: instructor who wears a quartz SMP told me
: that you may have to replace the whole
: movement every ten years or so because it
: wears out?? Is this true?
NOT TRUE. Under the "usual" wearing circumstances, even cheap automatics last way longer than 10 yrs.
: Surely if you have the watch serviced at the
: appropriate times then it should last a
: lifetime?
Very likely it will, but remember that a lifetime can sometimes be a VERY LONG TIME.
