Omega Deville Coaxial power reserve

I'm comptempalting to purchase the omega deville coxial power reserve 4632.31.31. I haven't been able to find a review of that watch and I am asking myself the following questions:

1. Is the 2627 calibre derived from the famous 2500A caliber which caused so much problems to Omega?

2. Will the 2627 calibre be replaced by the 8500 family calibre in the near future?

3. Are servicings made to this watch every 5 or 10 years?

4. In what year was this watch first produced?

5. What is the normal lifetime of the leather strap?

Thanks in advance for your replies.
