This Seiko 6119-8095 is a watch I restored for my Fathers Christmas present in 2017. he has never had an automatic watch. As per the usual for me it came as a broken non runner. I cleaned and serviced the movement and soon it was running again. The case had a complete restoration and polish too. The dial needed some work, I cleaned with renata installed a replacement chrome date surround and installed a donor second hand which was missing on the original. finished it with a new acrylic crystal and a calves leather strap. My father loved it and for me it was almost hard to part with as I liked the finished watch so much. Pretty good for a watch produced in April 1971!
Sadly my father died in April 2024 in his 87th year. I now have the watch and will wear it when I think of him.
