But am guessing got to be more out their know I have seen some old grand quartz and a king quartz ? on here so been looking at some tat lots for some thing to tinker with as I fancy a few more.
These three I had as a tat lot and I cleaned and repaired them, even mange to source a bracelet for the best one that was the right type and age.
...
So what have you got ??
As always Ismy
Not Seiko, but the case containing your very handsome, newly refurbished Lord Quartz strongly brings to mind this favorite from my own collection. Vintage 1976.

**** Vintage Seiko- And others from the 1970's/80's ****
I’m between my next 6139-6002 (Progue). I must have had six or seven now yet I still keep buying them. Problem is I get one, it’s not at all like the pictures indicated so I restore it then sell it a month later. I still keep hoping for one with a case in better condition. So I have nothing. Only vintage in the box is Dads Zodiac.

yeah one's on my list but so hard to spot a good one from a frank or worse plus thiers only one pogue but the right colour combo triples the value it seems

Though not nearly as may as the Pogue, I guess obtaining a 6105 diver has had three attempts to get a decent one. All three that I have restored would not pass WR pressure tests because of the bayonet crown seal. They seem to wear out and there is not anything that can be replaced to get two new seating surfaces. In a hidden foot note from Basel I found a solution that was Seiko has finally done a reissue of the 6105 in the SLA033. Luckily I was able to snag one since they sold out before Hodinkee and others could publish their articles on the announcement. Will post a picture when I can find one.

'73 GS
1989 quartz moonie
And one from the mid-80s that my wife still wears. Are we vintage yet?
Too many watches, not enough wrists.
