One of the common problem with older Seiko Kinetic is poor water resistant of the winding crown and the push button. Most of these watches sent in for repair have rust built up inside at the push button and winding stem. This Seiko Kinetic 5M43-0F20 was sent in to replace the broken winding crown.

Seiko Kinetic To Replace Winding Crown
One of the common problem with older Seiko Kinetic is poor water resistant of the winding crown and the push button. Most of these watches sent in for repair have rust built up inside at the push button and winding stem. This Seiko Kinetic 5M43-0F20 was sent in to replace the broken winding crown.
Cerruti 1881 For Repair
This Cerruti 1881 Dress watch was sent in for repair because water has intruded into the watch. Water got in through the worn out winding crown and rust has started. When water condensation is seen beneath the watch crystal, quickly send it to a watch shop. Don't assume the water will dry up by itself as it won't, but instead will rust the watch movement and costs more to repair.
