Old Watches

I have a pocket watch from the 1930's (Howard), a Marshall pocket watch from the 1950's, and a Westclox wrist watch from the middle 60's when in the USAF. All run just fine and keep good time and as far as I know, all, have never been serviced. I wore the Westclox for about five years. The other two rarely. Based on my past experience I doubt my Speedmaster Professional purchased in 1998 will ever need service of any kind in my lifetime. I wear it only twice per week usually. I have two Citizen Eco Drives for everyday use. Any comments on watch maintenance based on my experience?
