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.

Thanks. You must have noticed me lurking in this thread for a long time searching for the post. It looks great.

Is that the nature of the older watches, or is there something just wrong with the movement of the one you had restored? I noticed that a few of the older Omegas are quartz which was interesting, and made me a bit curious about whether the watches were some kind of knock-offs with modern "guts" put into them.
