Seiko 6139-6012 Chronograph
This one is "the watch I thought would never show up." I bought it on July
6th and as I sometimes do, I did not pay attention to where the seller was
located, in this case it was Buenos Aries. You know, I've heard of it, but never
really thought about where it is. Anyway, the watch took quite some time to
arrive and I finally got it on August 15th.
Overall, the watch was in so-so shape. It did not really run to speak of, actually, and the crystal was in bad shape. I finally managed to get it serviced and refinished so that it could be wearable (thanks to
Keaton).
I think the case back might not be original - the other 6012's I have seen
have a different look, this might actually be a 6139-6030.
