First up for those of you that have just gotten a Lum-Tec with a NH15J.
Does your second hand sweep for 30 seconds then move like a Quartz?
If so which model do you have? So far it seems to me that the issue is mostly in the B6's, and B13's.
If your watch is doing this. Please do contact Lum-Tec about your issue.
I just heard from Chris who is on vacation in Alaska till the 17th via email regarding the issue. Here is what he had to say.
"Great no internet access here! Email only. We seem to have about 15 percent or so with this issue. I contacted Seiko about it and am sending a bunch back to them to advise what the issue is. I cannot figure it out. Smooth 30 seconds then like quartz. I take them as faulty defect from Seiko and send them back but need to know why they work that way. I had the guys pull all NH15 watches and inspect the seconds hand running. We are on it like white on rice! Otherwise, they time well and are very durable. I think some had a defective cannon pinion or seconds wheel is my guess. Will know soon enough!"
