  • It could probably be 90% remedied with adjustment. Seiko have never adjusted the 7S / 4R / 6R movements at the factory so it's really just pot luck whether you get one that has better or worse positional consistency. The SPB053 I had (6R15) ran at +2.5s/day and it was more or less the same +2.5s whatever I did to it - crown up or face up made no more than 1 or 2 seconds difference to it. All the other Seikos I've had since (apart from the SLA017) have been a lot less consistent even if they keep better time while being worn.

    Presume that's a trip to the store then they ship it off for adjustment?

    I can live with it being out of whack after a night unworn, but I guess it's worth getting it sorted in case I want to sell it on.

    More of a job for a watchmaker, I don't think Seiko would offer an adjustment service themselves except on GS where it would be done as standard.
