Whooops.

GradyPhilpott · 3 January 2009, 02:27 AM

That's pretty remarkable.

Phill (UK) · 3 January 2009, 02:28 AM

Makes no sense to me.

Even if that's a typo, then 27~36 hours (assuming that is "hours") is too short a time for the PR of any modern automatic watch.

So what gives?

It should read 48 hours... no idea where the 27-36 came from

Exactly!! Well, at least 44~46 hours as a general rule of thumb.

baldyspoon · 3 January 2009, 03:44 AM

I have four of these and they average 48-52 hours wish the would last 36 months as would save on keep using them all to keep them going

Don't get that much outta my Planet Ocean

dthiss · 3 January 2009, 05:20 AM

I haven't put the clock to them, but My LV Sub, Daytona and Seamaster all last about the same. I think I need a watch winder.

Is your Daytona a new model?

If so, it should last waaaaaaaaaay longer!

timackerman · 4 January 2009, 09:28 AM

Wow, I wish my watch had a power reserve like that!!

dardeca · 4 January 2009, 09:32 AM

What is the power reserve of the new daytonas?

mickeydainish · 4 January 2009, 09:58 AM

..still..... a gorgeous watch. Love that Blue!!!! :-)

rpryan55 · 4 January 2009, 10:04 AM

Don't know why, but I just couldn't stop laughing when I saw that. Thanks for posting!

JimC · 4 January 2009, 10:10 AM

Regardless of the reserve, the price is certainly one to beat! I've ordered enough for the entire TRF crew (please, one per login...)

shedlock2000 · 4 January 2009, 11:27 AM

Dont you just lurve properganda!!

Golfster · 4 January 2009, 11:34 AM

Yet the "littel blue" Seamaster has a longer power reserve...Yet, Doctor's advise, for a power reserve lasting more than 48 hours, please be sure to call your Doctor, your ex-G/F's, your wife, a camera news team and anyone else who may care...

Oiy.

Golfster · 4 January 2009, 11:37 AM

argh...."little"

2th Dr · 4 January 2009, 11:44 AM

My Omega DeVille had about the same reserve as my Rollies, although I didn't sit down and time them. Only watches I know that last months on reserve are the Seiko Kinetics.

meloncap78 · 4 January 2009, 12:12 PM

I am all over that.

CPCC · 4 January 2009, 01:42 PM

Isnt the daytona about 72 hour reserve with the chronograph off?

GMTJOHNNY · 4 January 2009, 02:18 PM

Had to add this...my wife read it and said, "of course the power reserve will last that long, it says AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT!"

I need to get her more blond hair dye

That's correct. The 4130 calibre will give you approximately 72 hours of Power Reserve.

wantonebad · 4 January 2009, 02:37 PM

My CO-AXIAL Seamaster is supposed to have an increased power reserve, but my Z serial sub has the exact same reserve as my new SMP
