Trying to crowdsource some advice. Found this in a shop today: it's a Seiko 6159-7000 from 1968. It looks correct to me -- the hands are slightly tarnished, the date wheel looks correct, the case looks OK, but the dial looks as if it might be too good to be true. Any advice anyone can offer would be gratefully received. With apologies for the terrible quality of the iPhone pictures. Many thanks
That looks really nice. I just compared the pics to my watch and I couldn't find anything that indicated redial. Lume looks particularly good too and I could not see any signs of relume, although if I were to guess on any lack of originality I'd guess it might have been relumed. Crown and case finishing looks correct from what I can see in the pics.
I had looked at a few about 6 weeks ago online shopping. Looks pretty good and for $50 will write a letter to that effect.
