Nev as with all bearings the worse enemies are lack of lube or water and grit contamination. The D/A bearings are cheaply priced and basically do the job, but you will have to make the call for either a re-purchase of the same OEM ones again, or go to some other alternative brand.
Price will dictate which way you will go, but water and grit will get into even the best of the so called 'sealed bearings'eventually.
Since you have this type of BB i suggest you also buy the Park tool for removal and installation, as the shimano one offered is not the best quality.
