Is it worth sending it in for repair? I just worry the repair cost will be more than the watch.
I very seldom wear it as I already have a daily wear smart watch

I have a very old Seiko 5 automatic watch, which gains 2 minutes per day

It'll cost abit to send it to service. but seiko 5 aren't that accurate from the start either. If you just eat at home for a month, enough for the repairs ady Also get rachel/christy to get an apple watch for you, or at very least a huashiat one eidrag liked this post

People service their automatic watch because they value it or they have sentimental feelings for it. If your seiko5 doesn't then dont. If it does, then why are you even asking smallcrab liked this post
