When I sent it to Coserv the first time, I asked for the watch to be brought up to like-new condition. I was told that there are no crystals available for it. They did get it running better than it ever has - finally.

Where can I go to get it refurbished? A new crystal and bezel would be a very nice reward for such good service.




KMB, I think you can fit a sapphire crystal into your Seiko instead of the usual mineral. I know of a guy in HK who can restore yours almost to as good as new.

You can also PM me your mailing address and I think I can send you a mineral crystal and a better bezel, beat up, but in good condition for restoration. I can find them here in Asia as I moved around. The crystal and bezel are on the houseThumbsUp02.gif
