Team,

Here's my De Ville that is COSC and Master Chronometer certified.

From the provided web site, here are the METAS results for this watch:

Type of test:

	Results	Test limits
FUNCTION OF COSC-APPROVED MOVEMENT DURING EXPOSURE TO 15,000 GAUSS (1.5 Tesla) MAGNETIC FIELD	passed	15,000 gauss
FUNCTION OF WATCH DURING EXPOSURE TO 15,000 GAUSS MAGNETIC FIELD	passed	15,000 gauss
DEVIATION OF DAILY CHRONOMETRIC PRECISION AFTER EXPOSURE TO 15,000 GAUSS	0.6 sec / day	0 to 5 sec/day
AVERAGE DAILY CHRONOMETRIC PRECISION OF THE WATCH	3.4 sec / day	0 to 5 sec/day
POWER RESERVE	passed	60 hours
DEVIATION OF CHRONOMETRIC PRECISION IN SIX POSITIONS	3.6 sec / day	0 to 12 sec/day
DEVIATION OF CHRONOMETRIC PRECISION BETWEEN 100% and 33% OF POWER RESERVE	2.4 sec / day	0 to 8 sec/day
WATER RESISTANCE	passed	10 bar (100 m/330 ft)

Note: 15,000 gauss=1.5 tesla.

I will be wearing it for one week and report the results later.

Stay tuned.

Cheers,

Nilo

Found it to be very impressive and exciting.   I appreciate all the quality controls, etc. most good companies put their watches through before leaving the manufacture.  However, I think Omega's taken it to a much higher level.  Think about all the ways electronics can impact a watch's accuracy;  how many times are we going through airport security, or working near a radio, computer, TV, etc.  It matters a whole lot more that the mechanical watch keeps its accuracy in our highly charged environment rather than just passing a test, snapshot in time, when it's shipped out.
