3 year update on my daily Aquis cal 400-2
Well, it’s not amazing. After roughly 3 years of daily wear, about six weeks ago I woke up to a dead watch. No idea why. Just dead as a door nail. I’m not going to say I babied it, but I also didn’t wear it when I would go mountain biking either. That’s a G-Shock job.
Sent it in to The Watchmaker for a warranty claim, and they’ve had it for a month with no updates aside from some intake pictures. Included.
In the meantime I’m wearing my now 20+ year old Seiko SKX781, which despite being worn really hard prior to the Aquis, has never failed me. 3 years in storage, a good few shakes and it powered right up like I never stopped wearing it.
I’m unsure where this leaves me on how I feel about my Oris, needless to say I’m pretty disappointed.
