8900 movement energy storage

Is a 8900 a good watch?

Mine have all run well within or exceeded their METAS spec, and my current 8900 is at .06 spd over 19 days. IMHO, any mass-produced movement powering tens of millions of watches is likely to have some issues cropping up. But my understanding is that this family of movements is well-regarded as robust, accurate and reliable.

What is Omega caliber 8900?

Are 8900 clibers reliable?

But i need more information about the reliability of 8900 clibers and service intervals Just one person/experience, but my 8900 is going on year 3 with daily use, a few accidental bangs, a million showers/swims, electronics/magnets exposure, no service, and it's still deadly accurate.

How often should a Omega 8900 be serviced?

Just one person/experience, but my 8900 is going on year 3 with daily use, a few accidental bangs, a million showers/swims, electronics/magnets exposure, no service, and it's still deadly accurate. Service interval is every 5-8 years per Omega... Service interval is every 5-8 years per Omega...

What's the difference between 8800 & 8900?

The 2 movements aren't really like for like and are actually quite different. The 8800 can be thought of as a more advanced version of the 2500 (and thus the ETA 2892) whereas the 8900 is physically much bigger what with its twin mainsprings in series. It was developed from the 8500 which was a true full in house design with no predecessor AFAIK.

What is the power reserve of Calibre 8900?
