After lurking around this site for the last two months I finally joined. Started collecting in March of this year and picked up my first vintage Seiko in April. The bug has bit hard and I am enjoying the start of this journey. I really love Seikos. My father wore one when I was a child and I always remembered it. Photos to come soon.

I am from San Jose, California. I'm still learning how to post photos from the iphone app and also use the webpage. Please bear with me. Also been the bit under the weather and tired since I have to care for a dog that doesn't like fireworks.

I ended up posting in the main forum with pics. Would you like me to repost on this thread? I am still trying to navigate these forums/pages.

It was in the watchuseek forum. Sorry. So many forums, so many threads. Let me try this again.

I posted yesterday with no pics so here are the pics. The first one is my Seiko chronograph V657-9010. Purchased in April and could use a full restore. The 1/10 th second stopped working on it and crystal is heavily scratched. The second is a SNAD05P1. Works well, picked it up used, everything works as it should on this baby. The 3rd is a 5M23-6b70 kinetic , lots of scratches on the crystal but keeps time well. Still trying to find an online manual for this one but no luck yet. And 4th one is a 7548-700F diver. Look how clean this thing is! I never saw a Pepsi bezel in this condition for a watch of this age. Even the dial, hands and crystal are nice shape. Very minor scratches on crystal. I had to contain my excitement as I made the deal. I picked up a couple of timexes in the deal with this one. Also have a few other watches I will have to post pics of. Eventually I want to pic up some watch repair tools and do some of the work myself.

Question, Why can I not access the Seiko date calculator anymore? Started about a week ago. Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Haven't been on in a long time. Life, new job, and a lot of watch purchases. More to come on the last comment.
