FS: Seiko Regatta

Hi,

I'm selling this nice, Seiko 6119-6050 "Regatta" from approx. January 1969.

Here are some relevant details:

Dial and hands: the dark blue dial is nice, esp. in contrast with the sky blue inner bezel. Lumes are in ok condition, and looks to be original. They glow in a uniform, consistent manner.

The lume on the hands are "dirtier" though. The orange second hand creates a nice, commanding contrast against the blues.

Case and bezel: The case measures almost 41mm. As the pics show, angles are pronounced and sharp. It's a very comfortable watch on the wrist. The outer bezel has silver and red markers on it that also create a nice contrast to the blue dial. There is a scratch on the 7 second mark of the bezel though. Both the inner and outer bezels work properly.

Movement: The automatic movement works fine, I have owned this for almost 9 months and I haven't noticed any concerns. Service history is unknown though. The date and day wheels also work fine.

Overall, I think this Seiko is a cool, funky watch.

I'm asking for USD 950 (inclusive of the nice, sporty blue strap and the cost of Fedex international priority).
