What We Fancy

The 6139 automatic chronograph is a legend for being one of the first automatic chronograph movements created alongside the Zenith El Primero and Heuer calibre 11. This particular model is known as the ‘Bruce Lee’, as he was often seen wearing this model during the 70s. Regarding value, it really is hard to beat something like this. A first of its kind movement, with beautiful design and excellent quality. Seiko continues to be the leader as the value driver in the vintage market.
