[WTS] Seiko 6119-8300 Blue “Rally” Diver (1969) with all original parts
Originally purchased from a vintage collector in Japan, this 1960s “Rally” Diver from Seiko has managed to retain all of its original parts (apart from the bracelet). [Click here to see a video of the watch in action](https://www.instagram.com/p/C3z2_JvqqyK/) **Model**: 6119-8300 / Rally Diver **Year**: March 1969 **Re-release**. The immense popularity of these 50-year-old divers led to a reimagined version of them (SRPK65/67) being re-released this year. The one I am selling today is a very early iteration of this model (March 1969) from a time when Seiko used to use “Water Proof” instead of the now preferred (due to its accuracy) “Water Resistant” nomenclature. **Magic Button**. The date wheel is quickset by pushing in the crown. It functions perfectly. Like any automatic with a date wheel, don’t force a quick set change during the watch’s hours of 9pm to 3am. **The Condition**: Given that the parts are original (apart from the bracelet), it’s in remarkably good condition. The dial is a stunning royal blue and needs to be seen in person. The crystal has small and shallow scratches across it (visible in the photos) but the dark blue dial prevents them from being particularly obvious. The bezel and case have signs of wear but are definitely in good condition overall. The bezel turns smoothly in both directions, as intended. **Scope**: No box, papers or manual. **Movement**: Automatic 6119, 21600bph, 21 jewels **Case Width**: 41 mm **Case Thickness**: 11.4mm **Strap**: Non-original oyster style bracelet. Fits up to a 9” wrist. **Price**: Offered at **$590** net to me plus shipping. Bank Wire, Wise.com (preferred as there are no fees for either of us), PayPal (if you have transaction history, and fees paid by you) or Shopify via my website (if you have transaction history, and fees paid by you) accepted. Not accepting trades. **Of note**: Nothing to report. [Album](https://imgur.com/a/clZtcxC) [Proof](https://imgur.com/a/cfnLVUf)
