    Hello.
    I have this Seiko 5 Actus automatic movement and I would like some information if anyone knows anything about it.
    I forgot the case opener so I will put later pictures of the movement.
    Thank you

    Link to the Ranfft archive showing the 6106 movement.

    Information? The Ranfft listing may give you some answers. If there is information that you need after perusing the link, get back to us and ask specific questions.

    Calendar problems. Many Seiko movements use plastic parts in their calendar mechanisms. You may need the help of a repair technician to diagnose and solve those problems.

    Thanks Canuck,very helpful.
    You are right for a specific question.I want to know what year is made more or less.
    On the link you provided it says Remarks 1967-1968.
    I like vintage watches more than new ones.
