Does anyone else's seconds hand move a bit when they adjust the time counter clockwise?

HaffI haven't noticed that, but mine did have a close to a half an inch scratch on the case back(thank goodness it was where it was), and it seems like the minute hand is slightly off on the minute indices.

Toddw397773Oh wow. You're more tolerant than I. I would have returned it for that reason alone. The bracelet looks good on that watch.

HaffIt was a very shallow scratch, have to hold in just right in light to see it.It didn't have the plastic on the case back, looked like it was peeled off with something metal...no biggie, I'll scratch it more in the years to come. It's definitely a keeper! Thanks, I'm more of a bracelet guy than a strap guy.

Toddw397773I replaced the stock strap with a brown Hirsch bufallo strap. it looks really good.
If you get a chance, adjust the time on yours and move the time back, see if the seconds hand moves a bit.

HaffI just checked and noticed that the second hand does move a tiny bit when adjusting counter clockwise. This is my first quality watch. Is this behavior indicative of a possible problem?

vandalousI don't think so. I ordered another SARB017 from seiyajapan.com as a gift to my brother and it has the same problem. I contacted Seiya, who is awesome by the way, and he made a video of another SARB017 doing the same thing. So I think it's a common thing.

HaffHaff, I reset mine, didn't notice the second hand movement you are speaking of, and the minute hand is now dead on with the indices. It's absolutely perfect except for the case back, which nobody sees anyway. It's already my 2nd favorite piece, just a hair behind my titanium SBDN013! Actually it's so close that if I were going to only have one watch it would be a tough decision. I'm sure whichever one I kept I would regret letting the other one go.

vandalousThis is totally normal for a mechanical movement. My Rolex watches do the same thing.

HaffAs a general practice, It's always recommended not to adjust the time counter clockwise or backwards. It may cause additional wear to the movement because the mechanisms are usually designed around moving forward. Do a google search if you have more doubt.
