An overhaul for a customer that was requested the other day.
It was a very rare Omega Constellation Day-Date and the customer really liked it,
It had been about three years since the purchase, so we decided to carry out the work this time.
Sometimes it may be a little early for an overhaul.
This is because the watch is subject to magnetism, humidity, and other factors when in use.
It may also be the cause of it not working properly.
In particular, humidity is not limited to the rainy season or summer,
There has been a lot of rain recently,
It is possible that they are subject to humidity all year round.
You may think, "Then I'll be fine with a new waterproof watch," but
That's only at the beginning.
The deterioration of the packing progresses day by day,
If you use it without worrying about humidity,
In many cases, the inside of the watch is strongly affected by this.
The humidity right now is close to 100% due to magnetic fields, so
Even today's waterproof performance is not enough to prevent moisture,
I'm not sure about this because it's a vintage watch, but I wouldn't feel safe with a new one.
By the way, most of the causes of movement rust are:
Mostly it's the humidity that's affecting it.
It can't be helped because it's invisible,
Removing rust is one of the most difficult tasks, so
It's not good for anyone.
Therefore, we recommend an early overhaul.
In order to minimize damage caused by magnetism and moisture,
Regular maintenance can help prevent the need for major repairs.
It's a small thing, but watches are much more complicated than most people realize.
A watch is not in good condition because it is accurate,
Corrosion due to external factors may also be a possibility.
Inspection of such parts is also included in the overhaul, so
If you value your watch, be sure to have it repaired regularly!
