    Picked this Seiko 6138-0017 Yachtman up today. Had no intention of buying anything at the NAWCC regional but this was there at a definite buy it now price.

    It's from October 1971.

    Looks original except for the crystal.
    Case finish looks original.
    Dial looks right.
    The dial has the 6138-0029T: international dial, with water resist indication nomenclature.

    Seconds hand faded yellow consistent with sudials
    Subdial hands

    Crown

    What other models share this crown?[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Pushers. These look rught.


    How does the crystal look? I don't this the crystal is the right one.

    Cool watch! Crystal is fabulous, even if not original.

    The stem is too long and we will replace or trim to the proper length.

    That's the best case I've seen of this watch! Crystal's too thick for sure.
