I am having an issue with reserve power. It should be 60 hrs as advertised. I get about 48 hrs of R-P. I don’t wear the watch 24/7 so I wind it every other day. Can this watch be damaged by over-winding. Many thanks.

No it can’t. Automatics have a mechanism to prevent overwinding, for obvious reasons. My DSOTM keeps going for a little longer than 60 hours when fully wound and left in my watch box. Try giving yours at least 60 turns of the crown and see how it does after that.

BTW, you posted this in the wrong forum.

My New Omega 9300, DSOTM gains about one minute every couple of weeks based on my iPhone clock. Is this normal?
Thanks

That is just over a 4 second/day gain, which is within spec. Mine does better, about +1/day. Try storing in different positions overnight because loss/gain is affected by position. Dial up, crown up and so on.
