I'm hoping someone can share a link to source reasonably priced Pusher/Crown seal kits and a new crystal (other than eBay): for my well enjoyed Seiko 6139 Pogue/Cevert.
I'm repairing it on a shoestring budget. Located in Canada
Thank you in advance.

TBH, I tend to go for Sternkreuz crystals - for some Seikos, their profile is a bit "wrong" but for the 6139 series, I think they work well and are readily available. The original Seiko PN is 330W18GN and Sternkreuz equivalent is XMD 330.821.

You can get them for about £30 in the UK and various sellers on eBay for a bit more.

Did you get the parts you need? Adrian at VAT in Oz sells good quality gaskets as a kit for watch references.
It’s a little more $ but good quality and for 1 watch makes it easier

Hopefully you already got what you needed.

If not, Ewan is correct that the Sternkreuz is probably the best replacement crystal out there for a 6139-600x. I don’t know if there is a seller of these in Canada, but they’re available from ofrei.com … I have many 6139-600x and usually keep a few of these on hand. O Frei’s site is difficult to navigate, but the Sternkreuz crystal is on this page, most of the way down on the left-hand side:

As for gaskets, the gasket kit available on eBay is actually very good:

The seller is a member on the Seiko/Citizen Watch Forum. The specialist watchmaker who has rebuilt several of my Pogues uses these gasket kits in his restorations. If you’re a member on SCWF, you can probably buy what you need there and avoid the eBay nonsense.
