If you look earlier in the thread, I had posted a restored Omega watch from an era possibly older then the 60/70s.

The watch keeps time fairly consistently when I'm wearing it. However I've had issues with how long it would keep enough power for. Sometimes the watch would stop 4 hours after I take it off, and others times it would last until the next morning when I put the watch back on. So that being said, i can't tell you the daily +- seconds on the restored watch.

The watch was cleaned and maintenance was done during the restore.
