Omega co-axial servicing
Wondering if anyone knows the service intervals for the 2500 and 8500 co-axial movements please? Omega's own FAQs indicate it's about 4 years, which is the standard interval, whereas other info suggests that due to minimised friction such movements didn't need to be serviced as frequently. Thanks.

Re: Omega co-axial servicing
Sure but the oil's used still have a shelf life. If it's working fine then leave it and send only to Omega, the co axial seems to be a right git to service properly.

Re: Omega co-axial servicing
I think at the time of its run the 2500 was four years maybe the 8500 is seven? The escapement still needs a tiny sliver of oil to work properly on the 2500. Doubt it does on the 8500.footycrazy wrote:I thought it was 7 years.

Re: Omega co-axial servicing
I guess that makes sense Pete. Ater all the 2500 was just a 2892 with the added Co ax escapement adddd i think.
But as you say above, if its working fine - dont worry.

Re: Omega co-axial servicing
I've been told 7 years for the 2500 and 10 years for the 8500 movement. Unsure if it's fact or fiction as it was anecdotal. I serviced my AT 2500 movement at 7 year mark.

Re: Omega co-axial servicing
I think the price for "complete maintenance" is £310 on strap and £340 on bracelet (for the 3 hander, the GMT/Chrono would be more).carlt69 wrote:The Po is one of my Grail watches and i hoped to have one, one day!
