HI Guys in this video I will attempt a service of this wonderful Seikomatic-R from 1966. A 30 (functional) jewel 8306 movement that I believe to be a high calibre Seiko movement for its time. This watch was sent in by Elliot from The Retro Future RU-vid channel. He bought this watch as a gift for a family member but it was not running right so sent it to me for a repair and a vlog on it.
Elliot took this to a watchmaker who opened it up and looked at it then closed the back and gave it back saying he did not do Seikos.... Terrible really.
I hope you enjoy. Like, subscribe and leave comments if you found this video interesting.
