FS: SEIKO COL. W. POGUE REF. 6139-6002 YELLOW "RESIST" DIAL

Hi,

I am selling another very nice Seiko just because the collection is getting too big.
This time on the block is this Seiko ref. 6139-6002 "Col. W. Pogue" with the yellow "resist dial".
You can read all about the different dial versions here: http://thespringbar.com/the-seiko-6139-600x-collectors-guide/

Please note that it is rarer and so much more sought after than the more common yellow dial with no markings at 9 o'clock.

The watch as presented has an aftermarket Seiko bracelet.
The watch is fitted with an aftermarket insert that has been chemically faded with a superb result.
Please note that the original insert ( as seen in the last two pictures ) comes with the watch.

So apart from the bracelet the watch comes with all the original parts.

Case is 100% untouched and still very sharp. Of course with several superficial scratches that are less visible in real than in these XXL pics.
Caseback is in great condition with all the correct engravings like the ref. number, Suwa symbol and "water resistant" marking.

Original dial in a fabulous condition. It's very hard to find these early yellow dials in this almost perfect condition.
Dial and hands still have the original lume. Minute hand has lost a little part of the lume but the lume is still strong.
I preferred not having it relumed.
The golden colour of the dial is just stunning and impossible to catch on camera.

Mechanically the watch is working perfect. It just had a complete check up by James Hyman who also repaired the internal bezel.
So keeping good time, setting day and date goes super smooth, chrono working perfect and internal bezel works perfect as well.
( please note that a lot of these W. Pogues have a non-working internal bezel )

Price: 675 euros ( insured shipping included )
( I give a full refund in case of any problem or should the watch not be as described )

Kind regards,
Bernard
