What service was needed for said TAG?

Some adjustments on the chronometer (it was resetting a bit short of the exact 12), the rubber on the sides and crown, some minor oxidizing on the case.

They say service every 5 years. They need cleaning, lubing, adjustment. I lasted 15 years with mine before doing any work on it.

That's understood. I asked because it looked like a quartz movement, which had me puzzled. Also, I'd never let one of mine go for 15 years! I'd be too worried about itself grinding the jewels to dust O_O

I have clocks on my phone, tablet, computers, cars, cable boxes, microwave, and coffee maker. But I still wear a watch, because:
1. Through force of habit, I look at my wrist when I want to know the time.
2. Watches are cool. I'm not going to be some dork wearing a Fitbit.
