What is not to like about this Seiko 6319-7000 from 1977. This has been a project that has taken over a month to complete due to issues within the movement leaving me to seek a donor 6319 for spare parts (watch was a non runner).  The blue dial is just wonderful and has a texture to it that you can see in different lights. Gold accents on the markers at 12,6,9 accompanied by those gold hands.  I refinished the case which looks better than the photos here as it was a frosty morning and I take my photos outside so the case has got some condensation. 

I did my best with the hands but the minute hand is badly corroded, however I re-lumed the hands and dial and then matched with this blue leather strap.  Overall I am pleased with saving this watch for my collection as I nearly passed it off as one for spare parts!
