Is the dial Taupe? Mushroom? Olive green? Or does it depend on the light? Model reference 6119-7430.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the serial number on the case back we can accurately date this watch to being made in July 1973.
CONDITION
Seiko 5 models are always popular, given the variety of designs, stainless steel cases and and automatic movements. They are bought by newbies and established collectors alike, and we try and offer as many as we can. This example has a great dial with really prominent hour markers, and the dial only has a few minor marks. The case is a good size, but a little beaten up – it hasn’t been polished as many of our customers prefer the honest look of a near fifty year old watch. It isn’t a safe queen, but it would cost more if it were. The movement is Seiko’s 6119C, which added quick set day to the quick set date demonstrated in the video. These are automatic wind only, so suit more active people. The watch may have originally come on a bracelet, as most Seiko 5 models did, but that has been lost over the years. The leather strap is new, and could be swapped for a different colour if preferred.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
