OK I want to say thank you John I’ve been staring at this watch, not working for years. I pulled it out because I want to try wearing it or get it fixed well after watching your video and doing exactly what you said it exactly worked like you said thank you very much. This is a great video. I’m giving it a thumbs up.
Amazing. I’ve had this watch for about 10 years. Changed the battery then it died again. Just tried this & I’m back up & running again. Thank you so much.
I have read dozens of forum posts and could never figure out why my Seiko couldn’t come back to life. Was going to take it to a watch store today but I saw this video. Watch started ticking immediately. Thank you so much kind stranger
Magical! I had totally given up on this watch. Bought it many years ago on a flight from Ghana. It has since been lurking neglected in a drawer for several years. Thank you, kind sir.
I have to add that the crown after loosening it into second position has to be gently pulled a little more out from second position. You will feel a small click. This is how I got my watch ticking again!
Thanks so much, John, for sharing this video. Would never have thought to do this. Was on the verge of sending my Seiko to the service center in NJ. Dodged that bullet, thanks to you. Curious how you found about this weird sequence to jump start the watch. Thanks again!
Paulie Lama that’s awesome! I was in the same boat, I had given up and then decided to dig deep and found someone who had posted a section of the manual with a similar situation. Tried it and it ended up working. Figured there’d be other folks having the same issue. Glad it worked!
I haven’t run into that problem before. Hopefully the threads aren’t cross threaded and maybe could be gently loosened with some type of pliers but I’m not sure. Maybe there’s a TH-cam video on a similar model that’s had the same issue? Good luck!
Hey John, I've got the watch that has the exact same movement as yours. It experienced 2 seconds jump by only exposing it to the dark by only briefly, even though i already charge it with the sunlight from morning to dusk with me adjusting the angle of the watch dial as the sun moves and it got normal seconds hand ticking. I've done your instruction by resetting the IC but the second hand keep showing 2 seconds jump, any ideas?
I had a similar issue a couple times and tried a similar approach by leaving it in a window, but it didn't seem to help. As a last ditch effort, I just started wearing it and it seems to have helped. I would suggest trying to wear it for a few days and trying the reset trick.

How long do you keep this watch in the drawer until baterry totally drained ?
Romi Nur Ismanto I believe it was around 5 months or so.

Ωραίο το ρολόι πήρα λίγο μεγαλύτερη διάμετρο αλλά η ημερομηνία δεν φαίνεται ούτε με μεγεθυντικό φακό τόσο χάλασε η οπτική νου οξύτητα:Ε μάλλον
It worked.
Thanks alot
