Hi all. Seiko 6105-8119. I bought this out of the US some years ago when I first got into vintage Seiko, and the Earth was younger. It came reconditioned after seawater incursion which destroyed the original movement and disintegrated the original hand set. It came with a replacement hand set, an AM bezel insert, a bracelet from a 0634, and a tall story about the history of the watch, which may or may not be true, The replacement hand set didn’t match the original dial patina, but it took a while before I got around to doing anything about it. I sent it over to Adrian-VTA for hand re-luming, fitting of the original bezel insert and removal of the bracelet that I could not budge. It’s back, and Adrian did a great job to match the lume. Regards, Ross

Found this one this morning at the local flea market. I should not buy so many watches... Don't know a thing about Citizens, so no idea when it was made and what movement is in there. 198something, I guess...

At the rate I'm going, I hesitate to use the word honeymoon insofar as wearing a new addition goes. Although I'm single, to use such a phrase might tarnish the institution of marriage, right? I'm wearing this one today.....

My buddy got a lap dance from a naked stripper while in Mexico and woke up the next morning with a rash on his chest. 😂 Nice score at the flea market 👍🏻

Aloha Louis Nice find! What a beautiful young woman she is You are a truly lucky man! Aloha Sir, Yes I am very proud of her too. She was born with what is call ..." Crib Death " . That is when they suddenly stop breathing while sleeping and and it is a major thing to new born's. I kept her with us because of the un-settle time between Dad and Mom. I worked ..... 16 hours a day but at night she slept on my chest for the first week so I would know when she stopped breathing then I would shake her and she continue to breathe again. While I was at work my Mom watched over her till I got off work then I would pick her up and take her home. Then after the first week had past I bought her one of those ... " Medical Breathing Devices that regulated when she stopped breathing " and ....... The Alarm Sets Off ... to let you know about it if you were asleep. I have always been a light sleeper so it was never difficult for me to know when she stopped breathing. She has lived with me during her first .... 13 years of age then back with her parents. Till today she has had a bond with me and never leaves me alone and always has to be around me. She just made her ... 22' nd Birthday last week too. I am putting her through college so she can benefit more in her future. She lives on The Big Island but since I moved to Honolulu she is always calling me and coming here to stay with me when she can. She has always constantly been around me most of her life. Her name is ....Krysta , But everyone calls her.......... " Papa's Diamond ". Aloha Louis
