Omega 712 - the thinnest automatic movement Omega ever made

[WatchGuy]

Hi Everyone,

Just took apart and service an Omega with the calibre 712 movement. It's the thinnest automatic movement Omega ever made, and a great little runner.








Hope you enjoy the photos.

After the service does it still keep to chronometer specs?

Welcome to MWF watchguy . Did you learn doing that at a watch making school or self taught??. regards tony

Firstly, I can't really establish if the watch runs to COSC (or Geneva Observatory in the case of Omega) specifications. That's a long-drawn process and takes weeks.

On the timegrapher, it's looking good enough that even with positional variations, it will keep decent time. If it will be within the -4/+6s/day range can only be established once it's been worn for a bit.

I am partly self-taught, but I take tuition with a master watchmaker every two weeks, and I'm also preparing for the BHI exam in May.
