Vintage Seiko 6139 6020 Just serviced - Seiko’s first automatic chronograph movement



Up for sale a Vintage Seiko 6139-6020 automatic chronograph. This watch is slightly modded the Dial and Inner bezel ring have been updated by previous owner.
This watch is in great condition, and all its functions work perfect. (Just serviced) All the hands reset as they should, and day date snaps over at the correct times. The quick set day date function also works well.
These 6020 case models are getting harder to get hold of these days and this one is in great condition for its age, they are an unusual vintage seiko, with that legendary 6139 workhorse chronograph movement.
Made November 1979 so its 34 years old and still looks good as new.

"The 6139 is Seiko’s first automatic chronograph movement. It is a single register chronograph, with a 30 minute counter, no continuous seconds and a quickset day-date display. It was produced from 1969 until around 1979. The 6139s came in a range of dial colours and case styles, and where marketed under a range of names" hodinkee.com

Super watch in great shape. Only flaw I can find is that the inner bezel will rotates sometimes while adjusting the time, never bothered me as I can reset the inner bezel back to were it should be. Watch will have micro scratches as this is a vintage watch.

Watch details:
Case - Stainless Steel
Case Diameter - 40 mm
Case Back - Stainless Steel
Dial - New equivalent dial of the highest quality looks great
Crystal - Original in very good condition
Strap - Jubilee bracelet in good shape will fit aprox 8" wrist.
Movement - 6139 automatic chronograph

As this is a Vintage time piece it does not come with guarantees and sold as is. I tend to overstate the watch faults to protect myself in case of picky buyers. Normally the watch turns up better than expected of my description. I did my best to describe this amazing watch as best as I could, Feel free to ask for any details. Watch keeps good time but I never timed it.

This watch has just been serviced by Seiko specialist so you get piece of mind.
