$0.00

For vintage Seiko lovers, perhaps no series is as instantly recognizable as the 6139-600X models that have become synonymous with the introduction of this historic movement. For collectors, they serve as the embodiment of Seiko’s efforts to deliver, with style, their first automatic chronograph. Today, these models are often referred to as, and fall under the umbrella of the “Pogue” models due to their association to Col. William Pogue and his now historic yellow dialed variant. Available in three colorways (Yellow, Silver, and Blue), it goes without saying that no matter your preference, they are all memorable in their own right and the right example would be a highlight in any collection. This example from June of ‘75 is amazing. The rich, velvety blue dial is virtually flawless. The luminous material on the markers is the original, and remains a clean, bright white throughout. The rotating inner bezel is a vivid black with crisp silver markings, and shows no fading from UV exposure. The polished hour and minute hands are free of oxidation or corrosion, and the luminous material within has no discoloration or degradation. The chronograph hands are a fiery red/orange that is both complementary, and in perfect contrast to the dial. The outer bezel in crisp, metallic red and blue bears only a few faint signs of wear, and minimal color fade. The case is unpolished with sharp corners and crisp factory finishes. The chronograph functions are snappy and responsive, and post service, the 6139B is keeping near perfect time. We’ve paired it with a supple navy tropic that highlights the dial and bezel, and provides a comfortable fit and finish on the wrist. Completely original aside from a replacement crystal, it’s an absolutely stunning example that’s sure to earn a top spot on any roster.
