Re: Co - Axial GMT
In Response To: Co - Axial GMT ()

Automatic watches do have variations in timekeeping, sometimes due to your activity level, etc. Age might also make a difference. However, it does seem like your watch is varying more than usual. Omega generally is a brand you can count on for fantastic timekeeping. I suppose it could be magnetized a bit, but usually this would cause a dramatic swing of erratic timekeeping. Since it's a mechanical watch, things do adjust. Maybe it needs to be lubricated. What you might want to do is take it back to the dealer--maybe the watch needs a small adjustment. Many times they can do this in a few minutes while you wait. Best of luck.
