I'm just about to place an order with Cousins and wondered if anyone has used Seizaiken watch batteries before & what results they've had ?.

 

                                                         :thumbsu:     or      :thumbsd:   ??

 

Many thanks Phil.

Hi Bob and atimegoneby

I have just recently used this brand (bought also from Cousins) a good battery that Cousins have just started to stock...

Best Wishes

No problem Bob and atimegoneby,

I think I also remember reading somewhere that this Brand has been used by Seiko for quite a while in their quartz range, although am not sure about this, someone maybe able to correct me on this...

Best wishes

Darren

Yes, I believe in the CousinsUK brochure I got it says they are made by Seiko (but I may be wrong). In any case, being good and priced right they are a welcome addition to battery choices. Having them competing against other brands may hopefully have all of us benefit by impacting prices all around...or so I hope.

      Lot of “industrial “ de magnifiers on Aliexpress  https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004699640024.html?src=google&src=google&albch=shopping&acnt=708-803-3821&slnk=&plac=&mtctp=&albbt=Google_7_shopping&albagn=888888&isSmbAutoCall=false&needSmbHouyi=false&albcp=17858129175&albag=&trgt=&crea=en1005004699640024&netw=x&device=c&albpg=&albpd=en1005004699640024&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwo6GyBhBwEiwAzQTmcxIEVpMt1vFIKQyfjVwT95zrBsOi5dt-GgFOmLamBcMcu4tO7CfaaxoChnEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&aff_fcid=b7140f118e144db7876d074872aec9cb-1716029308364-08531-UneMJZVf&aff_fsk=UneMJZVf&aff_platform=aaf&sk=UneMJZVf&aff_trace_key=b7140f118e144db7876d074872aec9cb-1716029308364-08531-UneMJZVf&terminal_id=6b7c60e41b044cb39d1431f62cda0958&afSmartRedirect=y   a hard drive wiper/degauser would also be worth looking at.   Tom

      Unfortunately yes! Magnetism can wreak havoc on a mechanical watch movement if the balance hairspring becomes magnetised. The cheap blue Chinese demagnetise-rs are useless if you feed them the wrong voltage (> 110 V), and even so, they don't work very well. The one I got when I was new worked so poorly that it drove me nuts. Eventually, I was lucky to get a Greiner Magnomatic for a little money. It's an amazing tool that can be trusted to do its job perfectly in seconds. A new one comes with a price tag of  £885 excluding tax and shipping, and if you think that's a bit steep (I believe most of us would) and can't find a used one I'd go with @Jon's recommendation.

      You definitely pick up different names from different people of all ages from everywhere. Like learning different dialects of the same language. Its all part of the learning curve of any trade.  Both those two terms describe to me perfectly that they are one and the same. After a couple of years of knowledge you can figure out what is being talked about. There are times that i get caught out with something i haven't encountered before.

      Mike, you have summed it up following the KISS principle.   Tom
