Yes, the exact same service others charge $89.95 or more for is what we provide to you for at least $25 less. Don't believe their hype that it isn't the same, they don't know!

  • Kinetic capacitor/battery replacement with the new Seiko Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery.

    (This includes the new insulator, bridge and Seiko 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 to reseal your watch to factory specs. Unlike others we take pride in our work and want the best for you. So we don't just wipe the gasket channel. We actually clean your whole watch case ultrasonically. It is the right way to service your watch.

     

    We clean and we guarantee water resistance if your watch is capable of water resistance.

     

    Do you need this?

    Yes, if any dirt is left the gasket will not seal and water will get inside. To service your watch properly the crown and stem need to be removed along with the movement. So just wiping the gasket channel for the case back gasket does not take care of the other areas that still are dirty and that dirt will drop in the channel which will prevent the gaskets from sealing.

     

    The crown is a good place for this dirt to accumulate as well. This is not hype but truth. We'll be posting pictures shortly of this very thing where some small fibers and dirt were left by someone just wiping the gasket channel, then the case back then starts to rust. Yes, even a stainless steel case can rust.

     

  • 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 your watch cannot be resealed to factory specs.

     

  • Seal the Stem and Crown.

    This is where we see the most water leaks.

     

    Another important place that needs to be sealed. We see many kinetics come in where moisture has come in through the crown and the stem has started to rust or worse. Most times this needs to be cleaned and resealed but sometimes the problem requires extra service.

     

  • Seal Pusher.

    One more point where water can get into your watch.

     

    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. We clean the tube and pusher and then reseal it. If the wear is significant additional work will be needed to restore the seal.

     

  • 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 as explained above. 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. Why wouldn't a good watchmaker do this? We do as we are the best and care about you and your valuable watch.

     

  • 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! A good watchmaker would know this and replace them. One more reason we are the best.

     

  • 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

     

NO corners will be cut. We only service your kinetic watch according to Seiko service recomendations.

 

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

 

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