Title: Seiko Navigator Timer 6117-6419
Post by: n1ckwlq on April 15, 2012, 11:04:13 AM
I'd like to share my dad's vintage Seiko manufactured 1960s?i do not know much about the watch except that the old man paid about RM800 for it (New in box condition) in a watch shop in a rural town somewhere in Sabah 8 years ago.since then he has been wearing it to work most of the time.the bracelet broke 3 years ago and was replaced by an oyster bracelet from a rolex datejust..the watch has multiple scratches on it's acrylic crystal.it's still water resistant though(amazingly).
