Title: Should I Refurbish My Old Seiko?
Post by: sshark on March 28, 2010, 03:33:41 PM

Hi,

Should I send my old 1990s watch to Seiko service center to refurbish the watch i.e. replace the crown and get a exact (or matching)  strap?

There is also another problem. The watch is in olive green color. If I can't a suitable strap (best if they have the original strap), no point refurbish it as it is weird to wear to common colors strap.
