Yesterday arrived my Seiko H249-5069 and I have to say it is in a NOS condition.
The only thing is there seems to be something with the alarm-beeps. When the alarm goes, I see the speaker indicator blink, but hear no beeps. And the sound is working. When I change the display mode, I hear a beep.
Probarly it is a logical start error, and this could be put right by taking the battery out for 2 minutes, and then put it back in for a forced restart.
Anyway I am happy with this new little old friend.
If anyone could provide me a pdf or jpg of the usermanual for this H249 caliber, I would be very glad!! I searched a lot on the www but did only find a technical manual and a parts list.
