●PERIODIC CHECK

・Checking  and  overhauling  of  the  watch  (cal.  9S51/9S55/9S56)  should  be

performed by SEIKO. When you take the watch to the retailer from whom it
was  purchased,  request  that  the  watch  will  be  checked  and  overhauled  by
SEIKO.

・We suggest that you have your watch checked by SEIKO every 2 or 3 years

for  lubrication  or  damage  due  to  water  or  sweat.  After  checking  the  watch,
adjustment and repair may be required.

・When replacing the parts, please specify "SEIKO GENUINE PARTS."

・Be sure to have the gasket and push-pin replaced with new ones when having

the watch checked.
