Wonder why NONE of the other 'Seiko Kinetic' Internet Watch Repair Sites show you photos of a kinetic watch being tested or properly serviced?  Go ahead, go to their sites and look.  We wonder as well . . . yet you keep sending your watches to them . . . and then you send it to us to properly service. 

Our Kinetic Repair Estimate tests your watch's charging circuitry, coil resistance and the all-important "consumption."  Most competitors DO NOT perform these tests, the results of which are the ONLY way to verify that your Kinetic watch will provide years of trouble-free operation.  Still in doubt about sending us your watch?  Read this person's Kinetic HORROR STORY.

Replacing the caseback gasket involves precleaning of the gasket channel and caseback, selection of
the proper size and type of new gasket, prelubrication, proper seating, and then correct torque.
 
What does the competition do to your watch? 
Mark Cuban, internet billionaire and owner of the Dallas Mavericks, says there are three types of "entrepreneurs."  INNOVATORS, IMITATORS and IDIOTS. 

                                        Who do you want repairing your watch?

We have seen the bunk on the competitor's websites, and we are sure you may have as well.  One site advertises 'ETA' certified.  There is no such thing.  ETA is a Swiss company that makes watch movements . . . and they offer NO 'auto quartz' training (Kinetics are AUTO QUARTZ movements).  Almost ANYONE can sign up to take one of ETA's courses, and EVERYONE who shows up to an ETA class (only 2-3.5 days long), and sits to the last day, gets a piece of paper stating that they 'attended.'  

Another bit of trickery is an "XX-point inspection/test."  Notice that they don't tell you WHAT they are testing.  We tell you, in writing, what we are inspecting, and we EXPLAIN IT TO YOU.  We tell you EVERYTHING.  They copy EVERYTHING we do.

Our exclusive estimate and diagnosis will test your watch movement's operation using Swiss and Seiko diagnostic equipment.  These tests are the only way to know that your watch will run properly.  Your watch's charging circuitry, its coil's resistance, its consumption, the capacitor's voltage and its ability to hold a charge . . . all these are tested when your watch is diagnosed during the estimate, and tested again AFTER the repair, in insure the watch is performing as it should. 

SMOKE & MIRRORS!

No "BS" about you needing to wear the watch for at least "3 days each week" or your warranty is invalidated due to a "drained capacitor."  Want to know why your watch stopped working when you took it off for a week?  This is likely caused by the consumption of your movement being SKY HIGH, and the "new" power cell can not keep up with the demand unless YOU wear it constantly to charge it, or put your watch on a "charging platform."  Why would you need to do that?  Did you need to do that when the watch was new?  Why now?  Seiko states that a fully charged capacitor will have a "power reserve" of between one to six months (depending on the model).  This means you CAN take it off and leave your watch sit idle for at least that long before causing the capacitor or battery to drain. 

And unless the new battery was a "budget" battery (which is what the competition may install) there is no reason it would not CHARGE back up when you started wearing the watch again . . . no reason except your watch can't charge the battery properly, because the battery is either defective (not genuine Seiko), and/or the consumption is SKY HIGH, and/or they did not verify that your charging circuitry was working properly. 

        They may not test, repair or verify that ANY of those problems are an issue. 

Still don't believe us?  Imagine if your car mechanic installed a new battery in your car, and then after you left the car in a parking lot for a week, it would not start.  The mechanic then told you that you needed to "drive" your car three days a week in order for you to keep the battery charged and qualify for his warranty. 

You are being ripped off!

A "clean" watch case with new "spring bars" on your "clean" bracelet means NOTHING if the movement is not tested to confirm it is operating according to Seiko's factory technical specifications.  If your watch movement is within specifications, our basic service will return it to running condition.  If your watch movement needs additional service, our estimate process will advise you of the need for these repairs, or you can decline service and have the watch returned to you, minus our non-refundable $25 estimate fee.  Click here for more info.

Water Resistance & the Basic Service:  Our basic service includes pressure testing for water resistance up to 50m or 5 bar/atm on all kinetic basic-service watches, which will insure that your watch is properly sealed.  Verification to 50m or 5 bar/atm will allow your watch to resist water that is spashed on it, or a brief immersion in water to several inches, but will NOT rate it for swimming.   If you desire your watch to be pressure tested to its rated depth (if higher), then you should request our intermediate or complete service.   

Pressure Testing:  Wet pressure testing is a service designed primarily for DIVE WATCHES (rated at 200m or more).  If you are not scuba diving or submerging your watch, the basic service is normally ALL your watch will require.  In addition, almost no watch repair facility will guarantee, in writing, that they will be responsible for damage caused by a watch failing to operate underwater.  Why?  Because the consumer/end user may do any number of things that compromise the water resistance security that has been restored and tested during a repair process.  If you don't believe us, start asking around, and look for this in writing. 

Would you like your watch and bracelet ultrasonically cleaned and lightly polished,  and/or pressure testing to 100m or higher?   

If you desire these additional services, we offer an intermediate level, and a complete level for your Seiko Kinetic watch. 


Here is what the competition will NOT show you, because they do NOT own this equipment!  SAFE PRESSURE TESTING is performed with a Greiner/Vibrograf LT-100 Poseidon dry tester (above),
and an AF/Swiss wet tester - if required to isolate a leak (pictured lower right, below). 

 
Results of your pressure test will be documented (pictured above left) when the watch is sent in for intermediate or full service.  Ask the competition if they can or will provide you with PROOF of your watch's pressure test results  No proof = More BS.

BBB Accredited - Sale on all Seiko Kinetic watch repair with two-year limited warranty.  Our specialized tools and training guarantee a job done right the first time.
