SOLD: Seiko vintage diver 6309-7049



For Sale is my longtime collection of cushion case diver 6309-7049.

The -7049 marking means this watch was originally sold to North American market, as opposed to -7040 marking (Asian Market).

Condition is very good and clean, as you can see from the pictures.
All parts are original.

The watch has been recently overhauled and regulated by a local Seiko watchmaker in Jakarta.
After the service, the accuracy is somewhere between -4 to -7 secs/day in various positions. It's actually very good considering its age.

Production date: April 1982.

Watch is SOLD!!!

Enjoy more pics :D

Seiko Vintage Chronographs

Many years ago I was so obsessed with Seiko vintage chronographs that I used to vow myself I would collect all variants of Seiko auto chrono caliber 6138 and 6139.

Some believed that caliber 6139 is the first automatic column-wheel chronographs released in the market. Some other believed it was the El-Primero. I really couldn't care less. I love auto chronographs, that's all that matters!!!

During my encounters with Seiko cal 6138 and 6139, I was amazed by it's durability, considering they're auto chrono with more moving parts compared to non-chrono movements. However there is one common problem from these vintage auto chrono: STICKY CHRONO PUSHER(S)

I've sold all my 6139 dan 6138 collections. Unfortunately I did not document (photograph) some of my collections before selling them. Please pardon the old and poor picture quality.
