Seiko Chronograph 6139-7002

One of my favorite watches! I received it with a few boo-boos, normal when you're 51 years old... I had to change the glass, straighten the crown stem and then a watchmaker took care of giving it a polish! The dial is like new with its original hands, pastel tones for the minute track, a nice internal flange graduated from 0 to 100 but I don't know the size, the whole thing is very harmonious. I love its saucer-shaped case, its day window in Roman numerals, the logo of its production site (Suwa Seikosha), its amazing timekeeping for its age and its chronograph that runs and resets to zero perfectly. This 6139 movement is historic! Some will say that it is the first automatic chronograph, others that it is not, but that is not the subject. In my opinion, it is part of history, regardless of its place on the podium.... A very lively Japanese watch that generates emotions, not a week goes by without me wearing it on my wrist!
