WTB: Seiko 6139-60xx Speedtimer with 6139A movement

Hi everyone,

As some of you may know, my little watch collection is focused on the first automatic chronograph movements by Heuer, Zenith and Seiko that came out in 1969.
I already have a Heuer cal 11 and a Zenith El Primero 3019 (see photos below), so now I'm looking for an early Seiko 6139-60xx with a 6139A movement to 'complete' the collection.
The early ones with a Proof dial and Proof caseback would be preferred.
Any 6139A dating from August 1969 (serial number 98xxxx) would be GRAIL, cos that'll correspond to not only my birth year, but birth month also!

Obviously I'm aware that I'm looking for a Seiko on a Heuer forum, but hey, who know what other watches you guys might have stashed away, right?
I am located in Singapore, and will pay by Paypal or bank transfer.
I have several references on this forum.
Please let me know if you have one in your collection you're willing to part with, or know someone with such a watch - I promise you it'll come to a good home!
Thanks for reading.
