Hello,

I recently bought a 50s Navitimer. I don't know it's service history, but it runs about +/- 20 seconds a day. Should I get it serviced now? Or do you think it is ok to wear for a little bit first?

It needs servicing because for all you know it is running without any oil - in fact I wouldn't be running it at all, way too much risk.

Contact member chronodeco and he'll help you out, and just search here for countless examples of his work.

Normal expectation would be +\- 15 seconds, so you're not far off.
