Have to remember to keep the collection in check if you can't afford the servicing...

Is it a chrono? That's a lot for a 3 hander. In-house movement?

Very nice!
In-house movements are ones the company makes itself. Otherwise they buy stock movements and 'case' them. Looks like this one has a Sellita SW 300 base caliber, which is a stock movement but known as a good one. Since its stock, next time you could have an independent watchmaker service it for probably $250 or so. Not pushing manufacturer or independent necessarily but wanted to show you there are options! |

Thank you tigerpac. When it next needs service, I'll definitely go independent, given that information. Very useful. I guess its not so bad having the factory do its first service since I got it, but afterwards things may be a bit more flexible :-)
