Should know, I am totally biased in favor of these watches; own ~6 of them; say ~ since I've given two away as gifts including the 4-5 I also own. My watch-maker said to have them serviced each 5 years and they will be re-lubed and re-sealed and should serve one just as new. That has been true.

That is my experience; these are completely mechanical movements so there is wear and tear for the movements, but all of mine have been well within new tolerance.

If you can get a model year before the one here, shown, the 5 minute markers are shaped like an "L" and the leg of the "L" protrudes into the center of the face; seemingly floats from side of the bezel that has the minute markers on its surface.

The model shown is a bit sleeker, but and does not have the above description of its face.

I have both and they are elegantly designed watches.  The clasp is unusual and is another great design; frankly it took me a whole day to figure out how to put it on with one hand when first getting it.

And, I thought I was coordinated, too.
