NEW – Premium Upgrade Service for your SEIKO 6105 Diver!

By Uncategorized

Geday People,

We’ve now introduced a new premium service for the 6105 diver movements.

Originally these were a 17 jewel movement, which means some compromises were made to reduce the jewel count.

Over many service jobs we often find the brass bushes installed in the top movement plate are worn significantly and affect the running of the watch. Often they cause intermittent stoppages and accuracy issues.

Our new premium 6105 service replaces the barrel arbor jewel bearings and the top movement plate jewel bearings. This increases the jewel count of the movement to 21 jewels and means the entire movement is fully jeweled. Overall this is a huge improvement for the movement and should extend the life of the movement indefinitely.

The best part is the modifications are not visible unless the movement is taken apart, meaning it will not affect the originality of your watch.

This upgrade is in addition to our standard Viton crown seal upgrade, which means the watch will pass a 100m pressure test again and operate as per original specs. Our pressure tests are done on a Swiss WITSCHI electronic dry pressure tester which guarantees accuracy.

Here’s what is changed in the upgrade –

This watch received a full overhaul, re-lume and several parts replaced inside. The movement was also upgraded to 21 jewels. Several of the movement bushings were worn out so this was necessary to ensure it would run well.

Project Complete – SEIKO 61/63 Series Barrel Arbor Jewels

Well, after 18 months or so on this project I finally have a finished product.

These are the top and bottom barrel arbor jewels to solve the barrel arbor wear issues on the SEIKO 61 and 63 series movements.

I have them available now on eBay but will have them available direct through the website when I have a chance to set up the online store.

Here’s the eBay link – https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/VTA-Barrel-ARBOR-JEWEL-Bearings-for-SEIKO-61-63-SERIES-6139-6105-6309-etc-/292056148462?hash=item43ffe729ee:g:hO8AAOSwXYtYyKgl
