yesterday i was at a store were they sold all type of things from toys, cologne , etc .
So i saw some nice Seiko watches to my surprise they had 2 sets some automatics that cost $40 and others that cost $70. After i bought it the clerk says something like "just adjust the time once in a while time will a little off"
so I started to wonder if this is some cheap fake replica

Anybody know how I can check if its a fake watch?
I looked on their website and nothing there
thanks

Just what kind of store did you buy it from? You should have a certificate saying you bought a Seiko.

Just wait...if it does what she said, it IS a knock off.

If it's a real Seiko you shouldn't need to adjust it at all, except for daylight savings time. Otherwise it's a knock off. I don't think I've had to adjust my Seiko once I set it to the atomic clock.

If it's an atomic watch, you shouldn't even need to adjust it for daylight savings.
