How to set and use the alarm function on a Seiko 7T62 watch movement. This movement has been widely used by Seiko - and your watch may not look exactly like the watch in the video. To check and see if your watch has the 7T62 watch movement inside it is printed just to the right of the 6 o'clock marker, the first part of an 8 digit alpha-numeric code which will look like this: 7T62-XXXX, for the purposes of setting the alarm the last 4 digits do not matter.

ive had my watch for 12 years, never thought it had an auditory alarm. I heard it once years ago but thought i was just hearing things because i couldnt replicate it. THANKYOU FOR THIS VIDEO

7T62 is really a great chronograph quartz movement. The alarm subdial can also be used as GMT, superb!

I should have mentioned that!!!! Great point! Thanks for commenting! Cheers, Colin

Do you mean you can use the alarm subdial as if it were a second time zone? I’m confused. I don’t have this watch in front of me, but from the video explanation, it seems like if the subdial doesn’t match the current time, that means the alarm is armed.

Yes, there is a way to disable the alarm and use it as a separate clock, allowing it to be used as a second time zone. I've never done it though - and would have to read the manual again to do it! lol

I don't think you can. It will just go along with the main dial after the alarm passed.

@@josueramirez7247I have one. Yes you can set it as a 2nd time zone without the alarm sounding! Handy as a GMT

I love mine too! It was at the time my biggest watch purchase (before I went watch crazy). I will never part with mine. Whenever I don't wear it for a while and then get around to wearing it always reminds me how much I like it!

Somehow on mine the alarm won't go off, just no sound.

@watchoffthecuff 5 ай бұрын

Yikes! Unfortunately I don't have any practical advise about how to fix this! Double check to make aure you have the alarm "turned on", otherwise it will be an internal failure of the warch which will be very hard to fix. Sorry!

What was the price for this watch?

@watchoffthecuff Жыл бұрын

This is an older Seio, that was originally retailed for about $800 canadian about 15 years ago.

@tsunami3456789 Жыл бұрын

What price can I expect if I want to sell one in very good condition now?

@watchoffthecuff Жыл бұрын

good question! This one is from the same series as the SNA411 Flightmaster, they are worth 300-400 CDN easy. This has a sapphire crystal though, which tends to be unusual for Seiko. I think its worth about the same 300 to 400 CDN, as it is slightly better in terms of crystal, but less popular, and is in the same series (SNA model).
