few questions-
book sez keep away from strong magnetic stuff, or can affect time-
what's considered strong magnetic? computer monitor?  MIFI unit?

how hard is it to adjust the SS band? better to take to dealer.
bought online, so now walk it where u bought it service.

thanks

I'd guess the bracelet is a pins-and-collars type setup.  Easy to adjust with a spring bar tool or even a paperclip or pushpin.  Look at some you tubes and take you time and do NOT lose one of those pins or collars!!!!

Nice Seiko!
Ludwig Boltzmann, who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand, Paul Bhranfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933, Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics...

Stay away from stuff you’re actually like “yeah that’s a strong magnet” and you’ll be fine.

That.  It’s pretty hard to actually magnetize a modern watch.

If you do suspect a loss of accuracy due to magnetization, you can always use a compass to test it.  Even if you somehow magnetized it, demagnetizers are like $10-15 on Amazon and easy to use.
