Omega Seamaster 300m 8800 Accuracy

Dennerle · Dec 4, 2023

Hi Omega Seamaster 300m 8800 owners, does your chronometer watch slow down by as much as 3mins inaccuracy after say like 2 months of usage even though you wear it daily?

My watch is about 5 months old and I find the accuracy not as what I expected

That works out to be -180s in 60d, -3s per day. Not concerningly inaccurate to me, but it is technically out of spec per METAS 0/+6spd.

If under warranty, you could try taking it to your AD and asking to have it adjusted for free but I personally wouldn't bother.

Mine is approx +1sec/day

It’s not ideal that it is losing time, gaining is better and easier to handle and as noted above it’s technically out of spec but you are asking a lot from a mechanical watch to not reset it every now and then. Once a fortnight would be enough to keep within a minute all the time.

It might be a problem. It might not. Could take it in and have it adjusted but I probably wouldn't.
