Service time

Twice in the last month my beloved SMP 300 was dead when I pulled it off the winder, but being busy, I would set the time, wind it and it would run fine all day on my wrist. I knew the end was near.

Well today, it's just plain dead, zip, nothing, ugh. Off to the Omega Boutique at lunch

Beautiful watch, get it serviced and enjoy. I had my SMP serviced last January and it came back like new. AL

Should be an easy fix if it runs when wound I'd think.

I have one incoming-my fifth if memory serves. :)

Nice. I have Al of archer watches do my omegas. Cheaper and perfect service with high res photos of the procedures.

That would sound about right. No need for a trip to Switzerland, and it will indeed come back like new. That said, I have heard nothing but terrific things about Al and his Archer watches service. He is fully certified by Omega to service the co-axial movements, and his posts on the Omega forum are nothing short of a full education in horology.
