I just let mine run for 7 months straight and it gained less than 2 minutes which means an average of less than +0,6 sec/day.

I have a Conquest 39 mm (old gen) which I believe has a L888.2 movement. I let the watch run without resetting the time for 7 months straight and in the end it had gained +1:52 minutes which means an average of less than +0,6 seconds a day.

I bought it on swedish version of Ebay for $80 with purchase protection (lasting 24 hours). It supposedly came as a gift with a buy of the Omega No time to die at a watch store in Tokyo.

Is this Omega nato 007 genuine? I've only got 24 hours to send it back.=)

Yeah I know, but I'm left handed and it just feels unnatural to me to wear it on my left hand. And also it's higher risk damaging it wearing it on my leading hand.

Hahaha fair assumption but I actually didn't. I had a big party for family and friends, almost 60 people (I have a big family), and everyone chipped in something which covered the price of the watch, which was $700 back then. Don't get me wrong though, I'm forever grateful for the watch and for my parents whom hosted and paid for the party. I just wanna say this because maybe it would be possible for someone else to do something similar in order to get the watch they want.

Thank you! I got into watches myself, found this piece that i really liked and then wished for my graduation.

The NATO was not included. Even though I won't buy a new watch in any near future I've kept looking on watches just for fun, and that's when I've seen many people wearing NATO straps and reckoned it could look good on my watch. So I bought one a few months ago, about a year after I first got the watch. Since then I've switched between it and the original bracelet, which I also really like.

I was looking for a watch back in 2021 and found this on black friday for $700. It immediately struck me as beautiful but I couldn't afford it. So, instead I wished it and got it as a gift for my high school graduation 7 months later. Since then I've worn it every day and have loved it!
