[@raho24781]

Thank you i have a Justex 1969 Diver it was my Dads he passed so i ware his stuff everyday thank you so much

[@sigwally]

Sir: Thank you so very much for this video. I own 3 of this exact series of Seiko solar watches. I fell in love with them and bought then all at the same time. An all black, a Pepsi and a blue. the batteries/capacitors lasted about 19 years on two but the Pepsi is STILL l going strong! Thanks to your video I repaired the two, and I am sure the Pepsi will need it also soon. Thanks again.

[@quietatse]

I happen to have one of these watches. When you say repair, do you mean battery change?

[@callmebackfriday2]

Beautiful watch. Thanks for the video.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks for watching!

[@dybcar]

My SSC227 stopped charging. I thought I need to replace the capacitor, but I did restart the watch by pushing two outside buttons simultaneously and it started working like brand new.

[@canberkakdeniz5686]

Man, thanks to your comment I was able to start mine.

[@NunoCarapau]

thanks for the tip! Mine was stopped for two years and thanks to this coment is working again!! wow!

[@zombieprepper.4563]

Thanks mate! Working again without a battery change

[@ytsdartsplayer6425]

Just watched video on battery replacement and saw your comment, pressed 2 buttons on mine and started working 😍😍

[@peopleswatches]

Worked for me. Thank you

[@RobertoBindi]

Is the force that has been impressed with the rubber ball sufficient to maintain its waterproofness??

[@mariojr377]

this watch seems to be so new to have it's battery replaced, probably the owner did not use very often and the battery was damaged. I read eco drive owners saying their battery lasts 15-20 years. I like very much watch your vídeos.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks for opinion

[@Mark-sd7fc]

My eco-drive lasted 5 years

[@mariojr377]

@@Mark-sd7fc very few years, many ordinary quartz watches the battery last 5 or 10 years.

[@altaroxllc3184]

My V175 capacitor battery lasted 7 years. Good vdo to help me replace it myself, since shops around me want $90 to replace it.

from where we can but battery I am from India

Hi, I have a V175 movement solar watch as well. Replaced the battery, but the watch won’t start. I previously had the watch stored out of sunlight for a while FYI. Any idea why it won’t start with the new battery? Thanks

[@SolimBD]

Set original battery or wrong?

[@jaysterflex4152]

@@SolimBD not sure I understand. The original battery wouldn’t run, so I bought a new seiko battery. Put the new battery in and nothing. I left the watch in the sun for over 6 hrs today and nothing. I reset the watch per instructions (holding down outside buttons for 3 secs) and still nothing.

[@T22AAK]

@@jaysterflex4152 Thanks mate, your comment was extremely essential/addition to this video! I got the battery replaced, after hours under sun it wasn’t working and then I noticed your comment, pressed the both buttons for 3 seconds and it started!!! Thank you so much!!

[@anonezview189]

@@jaysterflex4152 thanks! The reset procedure jumpstarted my watch. It saved me the travel to the repair center.

[@stephenward3468]

@@jaysterflex4152 I think it is called a capacitor not just a battery.It wiill require light if it is beating at 2 second movements.Always make sure to order the correct replacement part when ordering.

Очень был удивлëн тем что можно резиновым шариком отвернуть а также затянуть заднюю крышку.. 👌👌

[@colourless3237]

What's that stuff used on the o-ring? Some sort of cleaner? Oil? What is it?

[@SolimBD]

Silicon grease

[@doeni2]

Is the Position of the new battery important?

[@SolimBD]

Yes

[@farisfaris353]

The seal should not be placed on the counter after it has been dampened, as it collects dust.

[@SolimBD]

Thanks for support

[@joshuae.ctambunan8807]

this watch is automatic or baterry ?

Small second on the left part my watch is working but the big hand for second is not working, may i know the possible reason why

[@randallsmith3073]

It only works for chronograph

[@nuk3m3vil]

What is the diameter of this watch? Seems like it looks smaller than it actually is

この動画を見てプロスペックスの電池が市販されている事を知り購入して自分で交換した。 プロスペックスはその辺の時計屋では電池交換が出来ずSEIKOに送り２万円かかる。 電池は楽天市場で2,400円弱だった。 電池交換が２万円って、独占的に電池交換をするってどうなんだろう？

[@SolimBD]

Thanks for comments

Once upon a time in Israel at a flea market, I saw a whole bowl of Seiko Kinetic and the seller agreed to any price, just take the whole bowl even for one shekel. The fact is that in Israeli realities, replacing a battery, that is, a capacitor, is more expensive than buying a working watch, even in the United States, the average price for a capacitor is $25, I just checked, although it can be cheaper, but sometimes it takes 40+ installations. Today in New York they ask for at least $10 to replace a simple cheap Chinese battery, and at the same time they also say that they are doing you a favor; in fact, you are robbing them. Therefore, given today's reality, such watches are simply not worth buying.
