Poor pictures, one owner from new, spotless case back & dirt cheap.

All original 6139-7030 "Petro dial" from 1972. I didn't have one in the vintage chronograph section of the Seiko watch box
I got a very good deal. All original. Off to Guy for a full overhaul, new crystal and cleaning up the dusty dial. Will conference with him on the minute hand; probably just leave it. I think it'll look real nice when finished.

A couple more of these Casios. Fresh batteries and thorough cleaning. I have a new crystal coming for the “Smiling Arnie” on the bottom. I have to put back on the original straps. I have them saturated with rubber conditioner now.

Poor pictures, one owner from new, spotless case back & dirt cheap. I am not overly disappointed because the movement is good and an absolutely lovely dial and hands. One lug hole is oversize and would require welding or at a push bushing...if I can get a long drill in.

So this was bought last week for a obscene amount of money. Only to be relisted. I'm sure there was a shill or two last time. Snagged it this time for less than half my high bid last week. Sellers picture.

Buckle it through a belt loop of a pair of jeans and put it in the laundry. Wash and dry and odor is gone.

So do I. Unfortunately only the 3803 was somewhat 'ready to wear. Everything else needs serious work. The KS and the LM have the ubiquitous broken date star, nothing moves at the Skyliner and the Seikomatik-P has a broken calendar as well. Tried to open the battery hatch of the QT-99, but I bent a 5Ct piece without getting it open.
