FAQ
What crystal does Waqtic use?
All Waqtic Seiko mods are fitted with sapphire crystal. Sapphire is rated 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it virtually scratch-proof under normal wearing conditions. This is a significant upgrade over the Hardlex mineral glass found on factory Seiko watches in the same price range
Are these watches replicas or counterfeits?
No. Waqtic watches are not replicas, counterfeits, or affiliated with any luxury watch brand. They are independently designed, custom-built timepieces that draw aesthetic inspiration from iconic watch designs while using genuine Seiko movements and premium aftermarket components.
Can I build my own custom watch?
Yes. Waqtic offers an online watch customizer where you can select your case, dial, bezel, hands, strap, and other components to create a one-of-a-kind watch. For designs beyond what the customizer offers, you can reach out via email to discuss a fully bespoke build.
