    And, once again, I come across this wonderful video *years* after its release - proverbial story of my life. I was shocked when you presented the 6139-7060 "blue-eye" - my all-time favorite, which I'm extremely lucky to have found about a decade ago, and at a less-than-extortionate price. Your vintage Seiko chronograph collection is indeed enviable; thanks for sharing the info on all of them.

    Really really nice video! There are a real shortage of videos on Seiko vintage chronos, so it was great to see 6 beautiful ones at once. I can’t get enough of the clean readable dials on all of these.

    I own 2 the Seiko 6139 6040 Ghost Love this watch so dressy, but needs so restoration because I inherited it and I recently picked up a project 100% original Seiko 6139 6002 Pouge and I can wait to restore this watch when I have the time.

    Great video on my favourite Seikos. My favourite vintage chronographs are the Panda, Pogue, Black Bullhead and Champagne dial Kakume. It is interesting that you warn about aftermarket parts when a couple of those watches have several. Even the Panda has a yellow sweep hand when it should be black with a red/orange tip.

    I have also in my collection a 6138 Panda, 7016-7000, 6139-6012, 5717-8990.. but the best I like is the 6138-6040 orange dial.. mine has a smooth Spalding basketball kind of orange, which I myself much prefer over the sharp yellow-orange hue on the Pogue.. thanks for sharing.. love to see more

    So beautiful, all of them! My only issue is if I don't get in on the ground floor, I won't bother, no way I'm paying the jacked up prices, for what at the end of the day are entry Seikos. Plus knowing my luck, I'd get shafted with a fake/franken, or busted watch.

    I recently found my father "Kakume", despite being in a box for more than 10 years, the winding still works (nos so much the automatic mechanism). It still has the original strap (wich I don't like, metal isn't my thing) but it's loose around one of the lugs.
    I'm goin to try to have it fixed, because I don't see how any other strap is going to look good on it

  • @jamescolbern4769
    @jamescolbern4769 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I believe there is ample proof available to attest to the fact that the true "Pogue" is a 6139-6005, (N. American distributed) since Col. Pogue purchased the watch new at his local base seller. We also know the specific dial text of it reading "Automatic" under the central SEIKO dial logo, 70m water resist at 9:00 and 17j and the suwa symbol under the pinion. The whole range of colors of the 6139-6××× family have been branded "Pogues" by the hobby/public. Col. Pogues personel timepiece has been repaired once perhaps more times as the subdial seconds hand is not original as well as the bracelet itself being non-original as well.

    • @TheMonsterHunterTV
      @TheMonsterHunterTV 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They did a good job on that with the Alpinist. They build one limited model that exactly mimics the original at a high pricepoint but released a modern reinterpretation with killer-specs for an affordable price.
      The only thing i'm worriedd about is the Chrono-Feature. It's more likely for Seiko to do a reissue with Solar-Movement instead of mechanical. That would be a huge downgrade. I'm not a big fan of Their solar-watches except the Arnie
