Hi All, Just got a new arrival of a Seiko "Bruce Lee" with reference number 6139-6010. The seller bought it from the son of the original owner and got it fully service and only had the crystal was replaced. Otherwise it's all original with the original bracelet. The lume is fantastic on it since it has been sitting in the draws for while. Question: I've seen reference from Klein that the 6139-6012 is the Bruce Lee while other have reference the 6139-6010 as the Bruce Lee. Are they both Bruce Lee?

6139-6010 SpeedTimer. He wore it on an aftermarket Kreisler stainless rally strap.
He had the SpeedTimer on the dial. But many call it the Bruce Lee like calling both the 6139-6002, 6005 Pogues when the 6005 is the true Pogue.
I have one that I’m servicing now. I’ll show it when I get it back.
Can you show pictures of yours? Sounds like a nice piece.

Weird for some reason the photos are not showing on my phone but on the computer. I am hosting the picture on Google Photo:

But that is not a true "Bruce Lee." But people use that term loosely so it's no big deal in my opinion.
Here is exactly what Bruce Lee wore in the lower right corner picture. It was a SpeedTimer. The guy whose watch is in the lower left corner picture sports the exact Kreisler bracelet. I've been looking for ages for one for mine. Hopefully I get mine tomorrow. My watchmaker had to put a new pipe on the seconds hand so it functions properly.
Here is the bracelet I found for mine to try to come close and exemplify the 70’s vibe.

I heard that Chuck Norris was once bitten by a snake. After two hours of intense, agonizing pain, the snake finally died.

When Chuck Norris was born, he drove his mom home from the hospital.
Chuck Norris died 20 years ago. The Grim Reaper is still working up the courage to tell him.

This is hilarious. I also hear that he built the hospital that he was born in before driven his mom home. He had a role in Star War, he was “The Force”

I think the bracelet is actually a STELUX.

Chuck Norris doesn't wear watches. He decides what time it is.

Chuck Norris and the Incredible Hulk once had an arm wrestling contest, and the one who lost had to paint himself green.
