I have an original Pogue!!! My dad brought from a business trip to El Salvador, I was in 5th grade. Man, the stories I have with my watch which still looks extremely cool, runs pretty well and use it daily. It is really a surprise that it was sufficiently famous to make a new edition
I owned the blue dial version back in the day (early 70's) and wore it for years until the hands fell off. Sold that recently but have always been interested in the yellow version. This one works for me and I'm glad it has the solar movement over the old automatic. This is simply a better watch.
@@FPV_sk8 the full charge signal at the 6 o’clock dial is at the 46 minute mark and not at the 45 minute mark if that’s your question. You can just put it in chronograph mode and then the hand is at the 12 o’clock mark.
@@FPV_sk8 the seconds hand on the seconds subregister line up fine on mine. But I think like most affordable Seikos, you're going to have to inspect before you buy since QC is pretty middling.
I generally like the style of stuff from the 1960’s and 70’s, so this was right up my alley. I bought one in Japan last month and have been very happy with it. I have even had people ask if it was a vintage watch, so the color combo definitely has 1970’s vibes.
It’s a nice watch, but I don’t’ understand why they wouldn’t use the case from the SRPK17, which is nearly identical to the original. They could have added gold subdial and it would have been identical homage. I do understand the reasoning with the reliability of the solar movement…
I didn’t know anything about the original Pogue, but after reading about this new imagining I knew I had to have it. Learning about the history increased my appreciation. Bought it online as soon as it was available and love it.
I own a SSC911 (silver dial), and it's a great daily driver that punches well above its price in terms of aesthetics and wearability. If you like this color scheme, buy it.
Really like this watch and have recently (two days ago) purchased while on a business trip to the USA. Was surprised that this watch is already being discounted by Seiko retailers by 20%. Meaning I saved £200(UK) on RRP back home in the UK and I love it. Really enjoying the videos especially recent CIA/Panerai Thank you
I have one of these A friend purchased it for me from Seiko Dreams in Ginza Not only has it come from the home of Seiko, it was £150 cheaper than the UK rrp which is £600. £450 is a very satisfying price for this watch. A massive result especially that the Seiko boutique in London had sold all it's first allocated shipment before it was released. I absolutely love this timepiece
Great review Teddy! Purchased the watch a few weeks back and I’m loving it. The yellow pops and has already been a conversation piece with several friends.
Been watching your videos for a while now and was inspired to start a collection. Started with the AMZWATCH, its specs for price and clean looks, now am looking for a dress watch to add.
Great review, I have had one of these for a month now, I really wanted Seiko to make an updated version of the Poque so when they released this it was a no brainer, now that I have one I have to say I really do love this watch, it looks fantastic, nice weight to it too
I think the comparisons to the original apogee are meaningless. It’s not a re-issue, and never claimed to be. What I see is a lovely watch in a stunning colour way with excellent tech specs… and I want to own one. Trying to find one to purchase as we speak!
Currently wearing my brand new Laco Aachen Flieger type B with the Myota movement. Thanks Teddy for making such a good case for these watches. It's awesome!
I’ve been waiting for this review & I’m glad I did wait now I know how much a mechanic version would be. I’ve tried one on & it’s great, I’ll definitely pressure my wife to get me one for my birthday now.
I’m glad they released this watch, but I too would like to see a proper Pogue reissued. Actually, I’d love to see several 6139 models reissued. They can make up for that Bruce Lee limited edition with an updated version of the 6139 “Bruce Lee” and the 8002!
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from MAMACOO
Teddy, Great video (as always). As an owner of a non-Pogue 6139, the new Speedtimer captures the essence in a much easier to wear piece. My 6139 runs beautifully but has a 1970s power reserve which means
They should also make an automatic version, its an amazing color combo. I wore the original one for a bit, it's so nice on the wrist. Of course it was a refurbished one, with new dial and bezel.
I was SO looking forward to this, but 21mm? Pin and collar? Bottomless pit date? 24h subdial? One micro adjust?? Way too many minuses for me. Great show, regardless!
the date window is not only cheap looking for this price range, in the closeup shots it is machined so inconsistently in the corners and sides making it look like a rounded square often found in $50 aliexpress homages. Its not like they cant do it, they're just being lazy with th design. look at the $100 SNSX models with a much more refined date window.
Classy integration of old and new, functional and stylish. Turtle-esque case of old Pogue is dated and bulky. Curators may gripe but the new release is a great watch. Lotsa people like old cars but not to drive everyday.
wiki Pogue it says: Pogue logged 7,200 hours of flight time, including 4,200 hours in jet aircraft and 2,000 hours in space flight during his career. Pogue put his trust in Seiko and that's what I think about the SSC947, it appears trustworthy for daily wear let alone blasting off into orbit at Mach 10 speeds, such a cool story behind this one! Pogue never ran out of luck!
Being a fanboy of the original of 6139s (I have four now..), I had to get one of these. I love wearing this, but got myself a leather strap. When I first saw this advertised, I said “Instant Classic”, and I think it will be!
I got this on pre-order the second it was available. My original Pogue is a delicate old lady that doesn't get to go out much any more. But this is like it's tomboy grand daughter! Great fun. Yes, @GinkoJoe is right, a bunch of minuses but not one of my watches is perfect. This one is great fun to wear and gets more comments than a lot of my "better" watches. Recommended!
It is unique and stands out in a sea of black and white dials. I had the white speedtimer, great quality and felt substantial on my wrist. Unfortunately legibility with all the white wasn’t great. This new one solves that.
Pogue’s Seiko was a 6005 (North America ), not a 6002. I’m still wearing my 6139-6005, Dec. 1975 for the past 48 years. Purchased at Macy’s for $145 USD. Still all original dial and lume with no water damage.
I first saw it on your IG when it was expected and I immediately knew I had to have it, although I just bought a Spinnaker Fleuss GMT... I love the colors on the original Pogue and I was in doubt of an original (expensive, shipping, reliability,...) and I could not really find an alternative, as Islander discontinued its "Pogue" Calabro. So actually I ordered it as soon as possible and I even received it as a gift from my ex for helping her out... It's eye catching and incredibly beautiful to me (and that's all that really matters I guess)... Great watch from Seiko!!!
My 6139-6002 I have had with a lifetime of adventure was recently overhauled that found a loose jewel on the escapement, a little heat to seat the escapement jewel in it's correct position and it's all good for another half century. I do wonder if this modern interpretation will endure as long??
Thank you, Teddy, for featuring this watch. I have been looking for a sunburst yellow dial for quite sometime and this is just what I am looking for. The only thing I will do, when I purchase this watch, is replace the bracelet with a navy blue leather rally strap which, in my opinion, gives this watch an additional bit of sportiness.
What an impressive number of useful complications in one beautiful watch for under $1,000! When you add in the history of going into space with Astronaut Pogue, this watch should either be a starter luxury watch or definitely part of many collectors' collections. Does anybody know why Seiko only made the 60-250 part of the bezel in red?
Fan of the channel Teddy , would you ever consider reviewing the Seiko Astron series ? There are barely any reviews on TH-cam of this watch and no one ever mentions it , I’d love to see your thoughts on that watch .
Damn. Had my original Pogue stolen in the latest 70’s. Never thought about it till I saw this. I was a kid back then and careless and trusting. I am now old, grumpy and jaded, this one will not get nixed.😂😂
I have no issue with quartz, just not a fan of batteries, so the fact that this is solar, I’m all in! It’s a shame about the shape but otherwise a killer watch!
Instead of using the speedtimer case, Seiko should have used the case from the ReCraft SSC667. That case already houses the V175 solar chronograph movement and would have looked better with the Pogue color scheme.
I bought the speedie with the ice blue dial for under 400 bucks. It recalls the Rolex in the same colour except the Rolex has a dark chocolate brown. For a white black panda, the Orient is the better choice.
Hi Teddy, this is a gorgeous watch. Would you please ask Seiko to make one whose diameter won't exceed 38 mm for poor people who are addicted to watches but who have smaller wrists?😂
Respectable enough reasons to go with the solar-powered engine, though I will abstain from purchasing unless Seiko introduces a mechanical (auto or manual). A measure of my thinking admittedly is invested in the romance for what's inside, and not just the exterior. Purely a personal choice of no consequence for anyone else.
As the owner of a true Pogue, I would call this a NuPogue. Like the NuBeetle of 1998, it's not real. Rather a modern reinterpretation. I like it and might wear one to allow my 1971 watch to remain in its safe place. That said, my EDC watch at the moment is a first production version of the Bulova Lunar Pilot. As that would be relatively easy to replace, I don't see any real harm in wearing it. A watch made the same month as Bill's would be much more difficult to come by.
The original Pogue is actually a 6139-6005 and not the 6002. I believe that the 6002 was for the European market whereas the 6005 was for the American market. The line of Seiko 6139-watches is a true rabbit hole with countless models and iterations and has a couple of unicorns like the Aussie Pogue.
Hey Teddy, could you please do a video about FOMO in the watch hobby?? Please upvote if you also want Teddy to see this comment! I’m a new collector and FOMO is killing me rn, it’s taking me so much restraint rn to not go crazy with it
I've never understood the point of the 24hr subdial. The only practical use I have for it is when I need to adjust the time/date. Why can't Seiko make it chrono-related?
@@jokeassasin7733 impossible? You’re exaggerating because you’re bias in that you want the dates removed. I’m with you on removing it, but come on man, honesty still has value. Granted, I have exceptional 20/20 vision lol
I can’t get past the dial color’s clash with everything. Regardless, bravo to Seiko for making it more obtainable. But I wonder how easily the solar recharges.
It's a cool watch. I have to admit, it's awfully irritating that watchmakers advertise watches that they don't make available for purchase. Maybe it's different if you live in a big city and can walk into your local Seiko boutique, but for the rest of us living in small town USA, we end up waiting for months or longer until we can buy them online. Maybe it will become available in a year or two, but honestly, I'm not going to waste my time checking online availability every day. I have better things to do with my time, and better things to spend my money on. It's too bad; I would buy one now if I could. And it's not just Seiko. I've had my eye on the new Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch with the white dial, but same story. It's frustrating as hell. If they want me to buy their watches, then let me buy them!
The Pogue charm lies in the case shape along with the color way. This release reminds me of the Hodinkee Omega Speedmaster 10TH anniversary LE trying to be like Ben Clymers vintage MK40 . It just didn't work either.

So much yes.
