Known service issues
- The 21,600 bph beat rate makes it more susceptible to positional error than higher-frequency movements
- Power reserve indicator can stick if the watch is stored fully wound for extended periods; wind it down partially before long-term storage
- Hack function is reliable but the setting lever can wear if the crown is repeatedly pulled while the watch is under spring tension; release crown gently
- Parts are globally available through the Seiko service network; repair costs are among the lowest for any Swiss-comparable automatic
