My #seiko #6m25 #watch is great but the seconds hand has been acting up.

It frequently gets out of sync with where the watch thinks it is and sometimes even stuck ticking back and forth in timer mode.

A year ago or so when I got it, it’d work absolutely fine and smooth.

I don’t require it to be accurate but it sure is annoying and I’d like to fix it.

I did a reset procedure without removing the battery as it should still have a year left but no change.

Any ideas?

        Haha, no this is just the timer mode.

        The seconds hand is supposed to tick backwards and it still usually does but sometimes it just does this. Ticking backwards (or any motion that isn’t just forwards) also appears to be what gets the hand out of sync IME.

        The “weird mode” is actually what it gets into when you do the reset. The seconds hand was also super janky and went all over the place.

        I elaborated elsewhere in the thread why I think a low battery is unlikely.
