Possible Karma? Seiko Watch

Well, after seeing the last 2 watch threads I figured I'd create my own and see if there would be any interest in my Seiko.

It is approximately 4 years old, and cost me nearly $400 (on sale) when I purchased it. I received a really nice Bulova and plan on keeping it for several years to come.

Anyway, if there's enough interest I'll go ahead and draw a winner. The downside? I took several links off so it'd fit and well, it's too small to wear now. I'm not sure where the links are at but there's a chance I might find them if you'd wish to keep the original wristband. Otherwise, a replacement would be in order and to be honest I'm not sure how much of a task that'll be (since it's 2-tone).

If this does not bother you, as well as the normal wear and tear then here it is. Almost forgot, the Chronograph is fully functional unlike other watches with fixed-fake dials. Thing is, the 'second' hand is 1 second ahead (fixed) because I've dropped it a few times :frown:

    In. If I won, I'd even send it to Seiko to get the links added back and the second hand fixed. Did something similar with the previous Seiko chronograph I owned, because I have rather large wrists, and most watches that have metal bands won't fit me unless I add several links. Also, this may be about the best karma I've seen.

    Nice offer.
    The second hand should be easily (user) adjusted.
    For you or the lucky recipient, here are some instructions on how to do it, but if these are not correct instrucitons for this particular model then poke around Seiko's site for the right ones.

    VERY nice Karma and Seiko makes fantastic watches. Not my style so I'm not in, but this will be a reliable piece for decades for the winner. Cheers, kawizx9r!

    Not in but I bought a Seiko at Goodwill a couple years ago. Thing retailed for $479. Needed to add links and ordered (4) from the link below for $5 apiece. Got more in the links than I paid for the sucker. It's kept perfect time since I got it. These folks are in Houston and their service was excellent. Good luck to the winner.

    Man, I didn't know whether that many people would've enjoyed the karma but I guess I was wrong.

    Goodluck to everyone, and let's get a few more people in on this!

    Makes me wish I had karma'd off this watch with the Oakley's I karma'd off recently.

    Anyway, BUMP!
