Just wanted to share a short story and a couple of pictures of my late dad’s old Seiko, which I’ve just had back from service.

My dad was never big into watches (at least not mechanical), but when I was going through his old collection the other week (which consisted primarily of cheap quartz pieces), I stumbled across this beauty.

I put the watch on my winder and, to my amazement, it started ticking. It sat there for a month or so and I noticed it was (understandably) losing time rapidly…

Back from service! My late dad’s Seiko 7025-8099 “Poor Man’s 62MAS”
