has any one noticed a drop in the power reserve? I have a 2005 super avenger that used to hold a 42 hour power reserve but now hold roughly 24 hours? I have not sent this in for the service as of yet because I hardly wore the watch. Any input would be great. Thanks

It needs a service.

The oils have broken down, increasing the friction and decreasing the power reserve. Combine that with the mainspring wearing from when it has been worn and a service will have it good as new.
