Lume looks a little 'fresh' in one pic, but age appropriate in the other. Think hands/lume are correct for a 6619-8060 SOG?

I see what you mean. Pic 2 looks original. I think it’s the lighting to be honest so it’s tough to know for sure. It’s definitely worth the purchase if the price is right and you wanted it. Often times the dial doesn’t always match the hands and both are original. Worst case if you don’t like it you can have it redone to match better. Good luck

That was my thought. That 2nd pic made me willing to take the risk. Having worked in a similar organization (many, many years later) and being a watch collector, I figured I had to pull the trigger before these became unobtainable.
Seller reports that he bought from the estate of an earlier-era Vietnam Vet (stored by Vet in a safe the last 10 years), so really liking the "narrative" behind it.

If that's the narrative, then I think you did well for yourself. Doubtful it would be re-lumed. Often times it becomes analysis to paralysis and you can make yourself nuts. It would suck knowing it was the one that got away because you waffled over it. But rest easy knowing it's yours and becoming harder to acquire. Good luck with it.
