it depends on the back cover. since its a quartz, im guessing it has a snap on back coveR? or is it screw type? hard to say how the previous guys did it, or was it the case fault, etc..

but even u go to a seiko dealer, they'll do it for u there itself. i doubt it needs to be sent to thong sia lo.

current Seiko is a screw type back cover. the Guess I can't remember.

Coz I was thinking that if I bring it to Thong Sia and if they screw up my watch, there will some kind of compensation. im just assuming.

btw how much does these kind of batts cost ? not exactly maybe a price range.

sorry dude, i've yet to change a batt on my quartz. hehe. still going strong no idea how much a batt costs now

Another pic of my Seiko baby monster.

how's the coating on the seiko so far? resisting lotsa scratches?
just curious.

The coating is not so resist to scratch so i have to really careful with the coating. My friend at my school always want to touch my watch.I always hide my watch near those people as the coating is a fingerprint magnet.

Just got myself a SNZF17K1 yesterday. Loving it!

nice...love the bracelet. very comfy. but the lume im abit disappointed

hi, just found out that lowyat.net had a seiko thread.

Been using this seiko for quite a while now...and very happy with it. The lightest metal watch that I have ever owned.

Introducing the seiko Titanium Chrono SNA139P (7T62 movt)



This watch is a keeper for me as 200m Water Resist versions of this watch is quite rare.

What I like : Light as hell
What I dislike : Titanium bracelet is a scratch magnet (I guess i'll change it to a military style cordura strap when I have the time)

ah...okok. but even the 42mm ones looks just nice on me. hehe.

for a chrono, im itching for this..SNA225P1.

Got the battery changed today at a regular watch shop. Was told that my watch's rubber seal is worn out but still ok...he applied some kind of "sealant" around the seal. HE advised me to avoid swimming taking a bath with my watch.

I'll probably go to Thong Sia to change the rubber seal soon. Anyone know how much would replacing a rubber seal cost ?

it might be this. their grease. hehe.

I think u r spot on ! coz when i put on the watch there was some silicon-like residue.

haha. im thinking of getting for myself too. in case i open up my seiko XD hands are itching for a new sapphire crystal. haha

Just wanna share. Found this link for Seiko owners to download the manuals for most types of seiko calibers

Hi Roonneo,

I'm very interested in getting one myself. Do you mind telling me where you purchased it from and how much it cost?

Thank you.

thanks for the link!
