Vintage SEIKO TURTLE 150M Scuba Divers Automatic Men ' S Watch 6309 - 7040, OCT 1987
Item History & Price
**PLEASE READ THESE 3 THINGS**1) The most common reason for return in order: not winding the watch long enough and in the correct way, not knowing how an Automatic/ Kinetic/ Self-Winding watches work, and buyers not having patience with the winding process. These are excellent and reliable watches but will have issues if not wound correctly. If you know that owning a time piece like this will annoy you, please consider a different style movement. This is a great entry watch ...into watch collecting but NOT PLUG AND PLAY.
2) We are certain that all our watches FUNCTION NORMALLY & KEEP TIME, +\- 2 min over a 48 hour period, when they are shipped. The watch MUST BE ACTIVELY WORN / PLACED IN A WATCH WINDER BOX, for a sustained period of time, OR IT WILL APPEAR TO RUN ERRATICALLY BECAUSE THE RESERVE IS EMPTY. THIS IS NORMAL UNTIL THE RESERVE IS CORRECTLY "TOPPED UP." Not knowing how to wind the watch correctly does not mean it is Broken or Damaged. Please read about what you are buying!
3) If you just didn't like the watch, no worries, we HONOR FREE SHIPPING & FREE RETURNS when the reason selected is "DIDN'T LIKE." We will refund any return shipping fees incurred with the purchase price refund. All other return reasons will be honored, however, any return that is not didn't like will be charged for two-way shipping and a 25% re-processing fee.
Sorry, but many people don't read the listing and think an automatic watch just works automatically, LOL
