Kinetic capacitor replacement with the new Lithium Ion battery.

(This includes the new insulator, bridge and kinetic LI battery).

Clean the Case.

When a watch is worn dirt builds up next to the caseback and when opened for service this dirt moves into the watch. If this is not cleaned there is no way anyone can reseal your watch to factory specs.

I clean and I guarantee water resistance. The cheap guys don't clean or guarantee your watch.

Do you need this?

Yes, why risk destroying your watch?

New Case Back Gasket.

Your watch cannot be properly resealed without this! Old gaskets will not reseal and will leak.

This is one of the most important gaskets and if it is not changed there is no way anyone can guarantee your watch will be resealed to factory specs. Just opening your watch will stretch the gasket out of shape and in some cases will beak it. Without a new gasket and cleaning of the case and band your watch cannot be resealed to factory specs.

Seal the Stem and Crown.

This is where I see the most water leaks.

Another important place that needs to be sealed. I see many kinetics come in where moisture has come in through the crown and the stem has started to rust.

Seal Pusher.

One more point where water can get into your watch. Without this your watch could leak.

This is not something others do. Many of these pushers do not seal when they come in and have so much dirt built up underneath they cannot seal or operate properly. If the dirt is not removed it acts like sand paper on the o-ring and will prevent your watch from sealing properly.

Pressure Test.

So you can have peace of mind about your watch being sealed properly.

If it isn't pressure tested no one can know your watch is sealed.

Clean and lightly polish the case and metal band. (if possible)

Some inexperienced people say you don't need this.

The dirt on the case will keep it from being water resistant again. The dirt on the band will act as sandpaper on the joints and pins. This will eventually wear down all the parts holding it together and the band will eventually fail. It takes no more time to clean the band while cleaning the case and it will prolong the life of your band. Saving you money.

New stainless steel spring bars (if needed).

Many watches that come in have spring bars that are weak or coming apart.

These are one of the most inexpensive parts on a watch to replace. Since the watch is here and having everything else fixed it only makes sense to be sure your watch will stay on your arm, doesn't it? If a spring bar fails and your watch falls to the ground it could cost more to repair it from the fall than a couple of $1 spring bars!

Factory Charging on Genuine Seiko Kinetic Charging Unit.

This is the only unit made specifically for charging Seiko kinetic watches and Pulsar kinetic watches.

1 Year Warranty on the work.*

Please see our full warranty for kinetics or email us for a copy.

No one beats my value price!

NO corners will be cut. I will NOT do rush jobs.

I will do the job right or I won't do it at all.

I have more experience and repair more kinetic watches than anyone else. There is a reason for that.

Send Your Watch Safely

I have a modern state of the art facility. I have modern state of the art security and 24 hour/7 days a week monitoring. Your watch is safe and secure here.

I am located in a city and not out in the middle of nowhere with limited access.

I am not a hobbyist.

I am a full time watchmaker and repair watches for a living.

I have been doing this for years. Ask the others how long they have been in business. It might scare you that most others online have only been around for a few months!

If you find someone else advertising the lowest price on the internet and the price is lower than mine it is because they do not service your watch properly and they have probably only been in business for a couple of months and don't have the proper training and experience.

I know of people advertising they are #1 but the truth is they have only been repairing watches for a few of months. How can they be #1 if they have not been around for long enough to repair but a handful of watches? This is dishonesty on their part. Do you want to trust your watch to someone that lies to you?

Trust your favorite special watch to me.

I have the experience, the knowledge, the training and honesty you are looking for.

I service more Kinetic Watches per week than anyone else and the reason why is honesty, service, value, experince and your peace of mind.

I don't do a job half way. If your kinetic watch isn't cleaned and gaskets aren't replaced you WILL have problems with it again soon.

Your kinetic watch will NOT be water resistant again if these two important steps are left out.

I see kinetic watches done by those that advertise cheaper prices and less service and everyone of them have not been resealed and now have more problems than they did to begin with. Don't be fooled by these charletans claiming you don't need what my full kinetic repair service gives you.

There is a reason I won't do less on your valuable kinetic watch

Why is water resistance important?

Do you sweat?

Do you wash your hands with your watch on?

Do you sometimes get wet from rain or snow?

If so this moisture will enter your watch and damage vital parts. It takes very little moisture and it only takes a couple of days for it to start the damage. The only way to properly reseal your watch is to clean it and change the gaskets.

Have questions: it is best to email me using my contact form.

I answer all form submissions Monday - Friday.

If you decide to call, leave a message and when I get a chance I will return the call. It might take a few days because I am very busy working on watches. The phone number is 208-635-5036 between 9am and 11am Pacific time Monday - Friday. Please understand that when I am on the phone I am not repairing watches. My first priority are to those people that have sent their watches in for repair. If you need or want a faster reply then use my contact form. I reply to forms everyday except on Saturday, Sunday and holidays.

You can ship by any of the common carriers - FedEx, UPS, Post Office, DHL.

Be sure to insure your Seiko Kinetic watch or Pulsar Kinetic watch for replacement value.

Enclose your contact info. (Name, Address, Phone and E-mail Address, etc.)

This is vital. We cannot contact you or return your watch without this.

Please do not send any Watch Boxes with your watch.

Simply wrap your watch in bubble wrap or other type of protective packaging and use a sturdy box.

My time is as valuable as yours. I need to be paid for it just like you do. So on Seiko Kinetic Watches and Pulsar Kinetic Watches I have a small charge of $30 for the estimate (this is only charged if you decide you don't want your kinetic watch repaired after I have spent my time to inspect and work up the estimate for your kinetic watch).

This covers my time to work up the estimate on your kinetic watch and return priority mail shipping if you do not have the repair done. This fee is waived if the repair is done.

You do not need to send any money with your kinetic watch.
