Hello fellow forum members,

I recently finished servicing an Omega Aqua Terra.

The watch came to me in very bad condition. The stem was rusty and broke into the 2500 Co-Axial movement.

Unfortunately, the watch got wet and traces of this were visible on the dial and the movement. There were a few parts that I couldn't save.

The movement has been fully serviced and regulated.
The following parts were replaced:

- Full seals behind the glass and back, crown and back glass.
- New crown and case tube
- New dial and pointer set
- Wear parts inside the movement

The photos reflect the before and after condition.

Thank you for viewing my work.
Best regards:
Hungaryrolex

That's pretty nicely done, mate. A lot of watchmakers won't touch Omega Co-Axials, especially not the earlier ones.
Yes, the 2500 movement is a particularly sensitive construction.
After assembly, this specimen required a few minor interventions, but now it works completely satisfactorily.
