● Inspection and adjustment by disassembly and cleaning (overhaul)
・ P eriodic inspection and adjustment by disassembly and cleaning
(overhaul) is recommended approximately once every 3 to 4 years in order
to maintain optimal performance of the watch for a long time. According
to use conditions, the oil retaining condition of your watch mechanical
parts may deteriorate, abrasion of the parts due to contamination
of oil may advance or delay the time significantly, or the watch itself
may stop. As the parts such as gasket may deteriorate, water-
resistant performance may be impaired due to intrusion of perspiration
and moisture. Please contact the retailer from whom the watch was
purchased for inspection and adjustment by disassembly and cleaning
(overhaul). For replacement of parts, please specify "SEIKO GENUINE
PARTS." When asking for inspection and adjustment by disassembly
and cleaning (overhaul), make sure that the gasket and push pin are also
replaced with new ones.
W hen your watch is inspected and adjusted by disassembly and cleaning
(overhauled), the movement of your watch may be replaced.
