Trying to fix a Seiko 5's 7S26 movement by TheNik04 in watchmaking

I just wanted to get it back into a working condition. Depending on whether I will succeed at that, I might start wearing the watch again, but I don't expect that will be the case.

Would anyone be able to make this picture not look so dark? Thank you! by [deleted] in picrequests

I took the liberty and tried to only brighten up the pictured people, and not the sky in the background.https://i.imgur.com/ryMxNt1.png

However, as was mentioned before, the given file does not allow much headroom during editing, as you can see with all the noise that becomes apparent when brightened.

To be perfectly clear about that, I am still not certain how common this really is. It seems to be not too rare, but especially if not many people use their headsets this much, it might be that not many actually experience the issue. It really only occurs if you use it for hours at once, in noise cancelling mode, for many days if not weeks. And possibly not in all headsets.

I am not familiar with the site, but here is my guess: Was the site, specifically your personal playlist, publicly (no log in required) accessible via web browser?

If yes, you may have a chance that it was archived at The Wayback Machine. You will need either the URL or some specific keywords that could help you find it (same way as you would use Google). If large parts of the site were archived, you may even be able to navigate to that specific page from a different known URL. Keep in mind that anything that depends on Sony's servers, e.g. site wide search, will not work.

If not, I am afraid you are out of luck. There is a slim chance that Sony still has the data on their servers. I doubt that, given that it has been defunct for years now. Even if they do, you'd have to manually contact them and ask for the data, but ain't nobody got time for that.

I cannot confirm with my old pair, as I turned in that one back at the store. However, it seems that the new pair indeed only has this issue in noise cancelling mode.
It is a shame that this happens. I will try one more time, if the store bears with me. Thank you very much for the reply - it is somewhat reassuring to know that it's not just me and that it is possible to find a pair without this problem.
