    I found this nice vintage Seiko 5 Sports 6119 6050 with a beautiful gloss dark blue dial that turns blue green under lighting. The outer dial is sky blue and the bezel is multi-colored. Its in unmolested condition and running very well. The second hand has a unique yellow gold color.

    Really nice find. Love the color combo and it's a proof/proof. The 6119 is a fine movement and came in 3 varieties. The A, B, C. The A movement is the earliest and uses two screws on the rotor. The B and C use one. You should have quickset on the day and date, but IIRC the 6119 does not hack. Your watch back dates to 1969 so you probably have a B or C movement.
    You might shop around for a period correct Seiko Stainless Steel Bracelet for an alternate look to the watch.
    Wear it and enjoy it!

    Here's one: This is the style of bracelet that was fitted to 6139 chronos of the time. Just google your Seiko reference number and plenty of pics will pop up with bracelet ideas. They were probably sold originally with a variety of bracelet syles new so I don't think there is only 1 "correct" bracelet.
