Did you have to send it to Japan, or is there a service center in the US that will handle JDM models?

 

SMP chrono for me today --

William, sorry to hear about the mvt issue but am glad it was taken care of under warranty and back on your wrist. Who had you bought it from! Did you have to send it to Asia for repair?

I had issues with my Breitling Ti too and it's been at a watchmaker in IL for a week or so, he should ship it back soon. I can't wait :)

Brice purchased it from an AD in Japan-chinowatch.com. No sent it here to Seiko USA in NJ..In the last 2 weeks I've sent 2 pieces in under warranty work, Seko & a Philip w/ val 7750, both were free of charge, & as we WIS know FREE IS GREEAAATT.

At 20 minutes fast after 10 mnts...
So the second-hand covered 3 seconds on the dial markings by each real time-second passing...
A usual second marking on the dial was then 66.666% shorter in distance covered than your "defectuous second marking".
Seeing this last number, I conclude that your watch was possessed

mail man came...uts adventure automatic.  its just a huge chunk of metal. the topping of the cake is the valgranges movement, it fills the whole back of the case, and is decorated wonderfully.

Thanks Oscar!

I found it at Watchbands.com.

A little on the pricey side but I felt it was worth the money for a properly fitted strap; it has the same quality feel as the strap on my Frogman.
