and if not vintage, then by the powers vested in me as the OP of this thread.... I'll give your beloved Seiko a full pass! 😁
Cool beans...thanks, sir! 👍

One more 6309 pic...and it continues to be a good flyin' watch! 😁

But you have plenty of these special watches 🙁 And that's excluding the gems you've yet to share with the forum 😁
Oh well maybe next time for me 👍

That's interesting, Bill. I feel as if there has been a softening of the mil. vintage market of late, but I think the iconic pieces like this and the JLC, Grana & Cyma, etc are holding well though. I noted that IWC recently did a re-issue of the MK XI. I wonder how that is working for them?

Good to know I wont be selling though...famous last words, right? 😁

I know you are aware of the Christian, Koenig and Steer article, but for those who are new to these it's worth a read:
