Finally joined the forum

Hey guys,

Max here. Finally decided to join the forum. I have a Date 34 black since 2007 but it's been mostly laying in a safe until now. I finally decided to wear this beauty and love every minute with it. A quick question on the side. This watch has been laying around for 10 years, do I need to service it? I hear that every 5-7 years it's recommended.

Cheers,

Max :)

Welcome to TRF!

Take it in for a check up. A lube, new gaskets and pressure test are in order especially if you plan to wear it in the water.

Welcome! A service is a must at this time as wear on the movement could result to damage on certain parts.
