Pleased to report that the Seiko is still chuntering along quite nicely after having worn it all day yesterday. If my read-up is correct, the 2206 movement is one of those that you can't wind from the crown. It's a total contrast in a way to the Gradus, which is just that little bit older. Neither is better, they're just different.
I did remove a heck of a lot of muck from the bracelet and clasp (nailbrush, toothpaste and soap job).
Had the bracelet adjusted yesterday when I dropped the Kelek off at the watchmaker for a bit of TLC.
The Kelek has always been a little bit temperamental since I bought it. A quick looksy yesterday confirmed there's nothing wrong with it, just that the old lubricants have solidified and are gumming up the works. Mum is treating me to the cost of the service.
Mind you, she's been eyeing up the watch for herself...
The watchmaker admired both the Seiko and the Kelek which was eminently satisfying.
And I bet that's the first Kelek he'll have worked on, and likely may be the only one.
