Dear MrAYeo Bro...


C.O.S.C. stands for Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres. A chronometer is a high-precision watch capable of displaying the seconds and housing a movement that has been tested over several days, in different positions and at different temperatures, by an official neutral body (COSC). Each chronometer is unique, identified by a number engraved on its movement and a certification number given by the COSC. Each movement is individually tested for several consecutive days, in 5 positions and at 3 temperatures. Each movement is individually measured. Any watch with the denomination "chronometer" is provided with a certified movement.


Perhaps for a start, you can contact Omega Singapore to check with them if your watch model was C.O.S.C. Certified.



C.O.S.C. FAQs:

- Does any chronometer on the market have a COSC certificate ?

No. Documents issued by the COSC are optional. Only the manufacturers may decide whether they want to reveal or not the results gathered during the certification process of the movement by the COSC.


- Can a non-certified watch meet the precision criteria of a chronometer ?

No, as the components of a chronometer are of a better quality and the care granted to its assembly and its setting cannot be compared.









Hope these helped a little...

That's strange... I got it free for my PO Chrono... I emailed them in June this year I think.

i got mine for free in 2006. only needed scan of warranty card and mailing address then. maybe too many requests recently so they now need to charge.
