So, apparently watch modding is not for me. Long story short, I opened up this watch to determine if I would be capable of doing some mods. This was just a trial run, before ordering parts. I had difficulty putting the movement back into the case and the hands popped off. I gently but possibly incorrectly put the hour and minute hands back on, but gave up before attempting the seconds hand. Selling this as parts or a reassembly project for someone that knows what they are doing. Watch was one day old and was in like new condition before this occurred. Comes with box. Asking $75 OBO. Thanks!

	Established:	1881

	Country of Origin:	Japan

The company was founded in 1881, when Kintarō Hattori opened a watch and jewelry shop called "K. Hattori" (服部時計店 Hattori Tokeiten?) in the Ginza area of Tokyo, Japan. Eleven years later, in 1892, he began to produce clocks under the name Seikosha (精工舎 Seikōsha?), meaning roughly "House of Exquisite Workmanship". According to Seiko's official company history, titled "A Journey In Time: The Remarkable Story of Seiko" (2003), Seiko is a Japanese word meaning "exquisite" or "success" ("exquisite" is usually written 精巧 from Chinese jīngqiǎo, while the meaning "success" is usually written 成功 from Chinese chénggōng).

Seiko is perhaps best known for its wristwatches, all of which were at one time produced entirely in-house. This includes not only major items such as microgears, motors, hands, crystal oscillators, batteries, sensors, LCDs but also minor items such as the oils used in lubricating the watches and the luminous compounds used on the hands and the dials.
