Seiko 6309-729B day wheels?

[TonyH]

Hi,

My 729B is at watchmaker to get a full service. I was wondering what day wheel language options were available for 729B's when new? Mine now has english/roman.

And are the original day wheels white or silver? I only have photos now to look at and both day and date wheels look white but I cannot be sure.

I have some kanji day wheels in blister packages which seem silver to me, would like to get one installed but don't want to it to be non original color.

Thanks,
Tony

Quick answer to my own question: went to see my watchmaker and looked at my watch, my original date and day wheels are indeed white. So, I won't be replacing the date wheel with the kanji one as my replacements are clearly not the same color but grey/silverish.
