How To Tell The Age Of Your Victorinox Watch

Having just purchased a Victorinox Ground Force V25792 which I knew was a dicontinued model, I contacted Victorinox to see what year the watch was manufactured so that I could determine when to have it serviced.


I received the following reply:
  • The first two digits (05) are related to the manufacturing year, i.e. 2005
  • The next two digits (09) are related to the manufacturing month, i.e. September
So my new watch is in fact over five years old and requires a service.

Brian

hmm interesting.

i have a victorinox ambassador and never thought of servicing it.

i only get it repaired when it already speeds up 15 minutes. then the repair man tells me to overhaul.
