Need a Seiko tech

Post by SoCal C4S » Sat Oct 28, 2017 3:11 pm

Hey guys,

So- I have a quartz Seiko Chrono that has some condensation inside of the crystal. Want to send it to someone to be cleaned, and re-sealed.

Recommendations?

Thanks.

RJ

I could do a cleaning of the case, and a replacement and greasing of gaskets.

Hopefully the movement hasn't seen too much moisture, but I can check it out. Not a Seiko tech by any stretch, just a hobby. If you want the real deal, hit up Spencer Klein.

RJ, if you want me to ask Sarraff's (our watchmaker here in Miami), they have a Seiko account and are a good alternative to sending into the Seiko Service Center. They've been solid for me, Ralph, and other guys we've referred, especially with overhauling my vintage Seikos. PM me and I can connect you. :salute:

PM sent. Thank you. Mine is likely a simple issue.

Ah, too late. I would have attempted a repair for you! I typically only need an awl, hammer and beer... maybe next time?

Thanks fellas. Just need some simple work done, and might see if he can toss a cyclops crystal on it. Love this piece, but want it to be right.
