Greetings all
I'm Daniel. I've been collecting retro digital watches for a few years now. I wear every single one in my collection, as I'm not interested in just displaying them. When I was a kid, my mother bought me (unintentionally I presume) a Seiko G757 Clone made by ZEON TECH. I think I lost the watch when I was really young. I didn't grasp what a cool watch it was, I also didn't realise that it was based off a "Seiko G757", until a few years ago. I have sailed the seas of the internet and never found this ZEON TECH G757 clone for sale. Strangely, I found a single image of this mysterious clone a few years ago, and I've since been super obsessed with hunting it down. My odds of finding it are really slim, but I won't give up. I've set a few search alerts on eBay, and I'm hoping one day that I will finally be reunited with my childhood watch.
Hunting for this ZEON G757 clone lead me to other G757 clones, and now I own a Digi-Tech G757 clone which I managed to restore myself, somehow. I also picked up to Seiko G757 watches the other day. After picking up the G757's, I found out that this icon gorgeous watch has a wealth of issues, including LCD and capacitor issues. One of the Circuit blocks of the G757 is in terrible shape, and the other was in pretty decent shape. After cleaning up remnants of corrosion from a battery leak, I then decided to swap out the four capacitors as instructed by forums I had read, and still no joy. I've grown real fond of these G757's, and I think they're some of the most beautiful watches I've ever seen. Unfortunately I'm a slave to my tenaciousness and frankly, I'm now obsessed with fixing at least on of the G757's. If any one knows what I can do to fix my G757's I'd be super grateful. As stated earlier, one of the circuit block looks really good. When a battery is popped in, the light works, but, nothing else...
Anyway, stay safe y'all.
