··MWR Tech Support DeptI sometimes wonder if some of us has issues with wearing a non-incabloc watch in daily use? My watchmaker says some of the balances even risk damage in mail.

··I don't see any option in settings or profileI can’t really say because I’m a lady and I work at a desk so I’ve never had any problem with daily use. I don’t usually bang watches- the only times I’ve broken one is when I have dropped them accidentally, twice unfortunately— and that did not happen in the process of wearing a watch regularly, rather in the process of pulling out the watch from storage in one case— and in manipulating the movement stupidly during inspection at my watchmakers. As a result of which the needed service also required a balance replacement. Never again.

·Thanks yes - do you know does that mean no ck or ot reference?
will extract of archives deal only w the movement supply?
There are a huge number of variations. There were a good number of 9ct and some 18ct gold as well as steel.

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerI sometimes wonder if some of us has issues with wearing a non-incabloc watch in daily use? My watchmaker says some of the balances even risk damage in mail.
While there's no doubt that watch movements that don't have shock protection on the balance are more vulnerable to broken staffs, in everyday use this usually isn't a problem. I service a good number of watches without shock protection, and broken balance staffs are still not a common problem. The bigger issue is dropping the watch, but unless you really smash it hard into a door frame or something, the staff is likely to be okay when wearing the watch.
Note that I have shipped these watches all over the place as well - not one has ever arrived with a broken staff. The only way that is a real risk is if the watch isn't packaged well, or if the cargo plane goes down...
Cheers, Al

·B bbozicThe reference is Dennison’s own, to my knowledge the 13322 was used to case Longines movements as well. I think Omega can only provide you with information based on the movement serial number. This is the best answer i can give you.

·I inherited this watch from my grandfather who got it in 1949. As far as I could gather it is a ref. 2367, 30 SC T2 RG with a cal. 281 movement.
It keeps exact time but as it has not been used and running or serviced for probably 40 years, I brought it in to a watchmaker to have it disasembled and cleaned. The seconds hand is not original, I was told and will be exchanged. I am looking forward to getting it back in a few weeks time.
I am very happy with it!
