I've been into watches for many years but always new or near new and mostly Swiss. I do have one Seiko currently, an SRPC49K. I also have a restored (aftermarket parts) Pogue in the mail. A beginner mistake I know. 🙄
Looking forward to chatting and learning about early Seiko chronos.

  Welcome to the forum! Melbourne is one of my favourite places, just a shame it’s the other side of the world... We have good friends who live out in the suburbs (Boronia) who we visit every few years. You've come to the right place to learn, and we’ll certainly do our best to educate you (and help you empty your wallet!)

Welcome mate. Many of us have made a mistake with their first Seiko chrono, so you're in good company. They're hard to find in original condition on eBay these days.

Welcome! Quite a few members on your side of the world, like leffe I’m in the UK though. There’s plenty of help here about restoration with some absolute stars chipping in with advice and how to’s. And yep, I still have my first 6139 which must have been made from the sweepings from the AM factory floor. Most of us have done it!

Welcome! You'll find plenty of knowledge here so no more rookie mistakes. It's happened to us all at one time or another.
