Welcome Sans!

The easy answer on servicing is when it can no longer stay within the -4 / +6 seconds a days COSC specs, and that's likely 5 years - maybe slightly longer. If you dive frequently then you'll want to get it checked more often to make sure that the seals are still good.

:shock: a lot of abbreviating there huh?

Anyways, service is recommended every 5-7 years, or as needed. Many of us will just wait until we notice any problems like inaccurate timekeeping, which could be more or less time than the 5-7 year recommendation.

I MUST be getting old because all those abbreviations take me WAY longer to read than "normal" words! :?

Sorry Sangreal - just my age! (And I'm still in my 30's) Anyway I hope you've got the answers from the other guys. :thumbsup:

Answered by PM before I saw these updates since my last post, but I think it's all been said.

I remember my first Breitling....I must say she was great looking, but a bit rough around the curves :wink:...

Having said this I must say that after so many years, I am still with her!!! :wink:
