About every 6 to 7 years or newly acquired preowned pieces. I have my watches tested every year for water resistance. There submerged often. I have my daily serviced every 6 or 7 years to keep them if perfect running order and remove the scratches.

They do there job for me day in and day out, So I do my job for them.

aren't you worried that the gaskets have gone bad?

I put mine in about every 7 years even if they are working. Oils don't last forever

I did mine at the 10 year mark. I plan to do it again at the 20 year mark. Easy enough to remember as I got this watch for my 10 year wedding anniversary :)

I agree. Except for my 14060M, which runs great, I will service them when they need it.

I have yet to service my 2015 Rolex Submariner, and won't take it for service unless it experiences a problem.
