A little bit of catch & release for me. Bought this awesome and short-production run Seiko 6139-6040 aka 'Silver Ghost' off of WUS forum a couple of weeks ago. As usual, got another watch shortly after, and have to be budget-responsibly and decided to let this watch go. My loss could be your gain!
Definitely not a safe queen but everything (including the chrono function) works perfectly. Service history unknown. I pair it with a new Nomos beige suede strap for a beautiful retro look. One thing to note, the strap is too long for me so I needed to poke 2 more holes into the strap to fit my wrist. I did it with the only tools I have at home, so the result is amateurish
But this obvs not affecting the functionality of the strap.

A nice article that comparing this Seiko watch with Zenith El Primero: https://www.fratellowatches.com/seiko-6139-versus-zenith-el-primero-a386/
Asking for $800 + 4% PayPal fee - I'll cover the shipment via Canada Post.
Please look at all the pictures in the album and PM for more questions. Thanks!
