Pearl Posted July 10, 2015 Report Share Posted July 10, 2015 I'm new at this and have my first rep which I really like and am very impressed with. It's an Omega 300 Seamaster Chrono It's powered by an A7753. I loose about 2 minutes a week. I wear it everyday. Is that acceptable? Should I open it and make an adjustment? Any thoughts appreciated.

themannier Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Very nice watch ! 2 minutes a week= 17 sec/ day is not bad for a rep watch you know.... You should not take care about that and enjoy this beutiful piece mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Frequently as they "wear in" and all the parts get broken in, watches will get a little more accurate. I would wear it for a few weeks and then see what it looks like. I wouldn't try to adjust it right now.

Rolexman Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 When you take off at night lay it down crown up (on its side). This way you can compensate a bit as the movement will speed a bit in this position. Completely normal with mechanical movements. Even genuines.

I read somewhere about its resting position, but somehow thought it was suggested to lay it flat to gain a little. I'll try placing it on its side and see what happens. Thanks for the tips. I really don't want to open it and start shoving that lever! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolexman Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 7750/7753 usually gains a bit crown up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Posted July 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 I'll do it! I'll do it! Started last night in fact. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Posted July 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Well I tried that, on its side crown pointing up. It stopped twice last night! I wore it pretty much all day, took it off at about 9:00 it quit at 1:30 or so. I didn't wind it but swirled it for a bit, re set it and set it down again crown skyward. It stopped just before 8:00 this morning. Over the past three months I've only ever laid it flat at night and it's never stopped. I did not wind it manually. So how bout that! I work today till 9:00 and you would think that would give enough of a wind, and I'll try it again tonight and see what happens.

GenTLe Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 A suggestion: take really care if you want to service that watch. I had the ETNZ version and it came out that the hands were GLUED to their pinions. If someone tries to take them out to service the movement there is a big risk of broke the pinions...
