The limit that the 3 body problem presents is that there is no exact solution, and inexact solutions will eventually desynchronize so much as to become worthless for predictions. But the key word is ‘eventually’ - if your initial measurements are good, there could be years (and in the case of the planets of the solar system, millions of years) worth of useful predictions.
