elmerlo 0 Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Hi guys, bought the second watch from Creation last week, arrived today, but I have to say that I have doubts, so I ask the Seiko experts here. The model in question is the SRP307K1 "Monster", works ok, but there's a major problem on the dial: indexes badly off!!! :( Plus, the set of Seiko documents received doesn't match the ones I got for my SUN019P1 bought on Ebay from Tempus Maximus (no warranty certificate/card), but that might be due to the fact that Singapore sets are different from european ones (?!?). Opinions welcome: Edited October 7, 2014 by elmerlo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andyboy 5 Posted October 6, 2014 Won`t be a fake coming from Creation,looks like badly place indeces.Send it back to them and ask for a replacement. I rarely get documents from Creation other than the user manual which is soemtimes genuine or a photocopy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rawbaws 91 Posted October 6, 2014 I agree with all of the above although I did notice Tim has titanium citizen Quartz watches on his photo gallery for only a little less then gen from grey market dealers... Really made me think where these watches on bulk would end up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elmerlo 0 Posted October 7, 2014 OK, got it. Apparently I have been there too long and caught the "seen this on Ebay. Is it a rep?" bug :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nev848 0 Posted October 7, 2014 To put your mind at rest I have a Gen Ball DeepQuest that the indexes are off. You align the twelve and the six is off about half a click as is the nine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmerlo 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Looked for some informations around and it's a common problem on the "K" watches. From what I learned, the SRP307J is made in Japan, the SRP307K in Singapore/Korea. While there are some "K"s around with misaligned chapter rings, it seems that this problem does not affect the "J"s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MetalMickey 179 Posted October 8, 2014 Maybe explains why Creation manage to sell them so cheap... there have been rumours they are seconds or QC fails over at WUS. Seikos are normally solidly built and line up perfectly, unusual to see one that is off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elmerlo 0 Posted October 8, 2014 I ordered a 307J, so I will be able to compare and let you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andyboy 5 Posted October 8, 2014 I must have had near on 40 Seiko`s from Creation and not a single problem. I have had 2 from Amazon and one of them was DOA. The J model refers to being made in Japan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFleischer 4,355 Posted October 12, 2014 I wouldn't be that concerned, without the lines drawn, no one will notice that. It's a $200 watch. But, if it bothers you - send it back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
