A BIRTHDAY WATCH IS A WATCH THAT WAS PRODUCED THE SAME MONTH AND YEAR AS YOUR BIRTH MONTH AND YEAR Make: Seiko Type: Automatic Model: Seiko 5 Year of Production: December 1970 Movement: 6119C BPH: 21,600 Number of Jewels: 21 Hand and Dial: 3D Baton Gold Markers and Dagger Hands Width: 38mm Lug to Lug Height: 43mm Thickness: 11mm Lug Width: 18mm Bracelet: Brand-new hi-quality genuine leather strap with gold buckle Pouch / Box: Bran-New EVA Type Zipper Pouch According to most reliable on-line sources, the 6119 made its debut in 1967 and it ceased in 1975. The 6119C is the third and last upgraded model of the 6119 movement. For Seiko Collectors and Vintage fans, this is a Seiko 5 SUWA in immaculate condition. This is a Collectible. This watch was carefully stripped and meticulously cleaned via ultrasonic immersion, oiled and re-assembled in January 2023. It should be able to operate unhindered until the next servicing thereby providing the owner peace of mind. A deep cleaning was conducted on the silvery-white dial, 3D-styled Gold Indices, Chapter Ring, gold hands and date / day window, and is now in pristine condition. The case and back case were buffed as best as possible albeit a few minor scratches that are barely noticeable. The mineral glass is also in fine condition. The crown is located at the traditional 4H position and is nicely tucked away to prevent damage or snags yet easily accessible. The date / day quickset works as it should by pushing the crown lightly and harder to adjust the date and day accordingly and uncorking the crown for hands adjustment. The Day is in Arabic and English, cool! Equipped with the 6619C movement, it has an impressive 21 Jewels that operate at 21,600 BPH. The case width and height are approximately 38mm (without crown) and 43mm respectively. The lug width is 18mm and the strap can accommodate wrists up to 21cm; hence, suitable for men and the modern women. Due to its age, this timepiece has not been water-resistant tested. To the best of our knowledge and expertise when overhauling the timepiece, the watch is 100% original Seiko components from this particular watch. No parts were replaced with aftermarket or modified parts. The pictures provided shows the watch case in pristine condition (no dents and major scratches), and the movement within is squeaky clean and well maintained. It has also been demagnetised to improve parts reliability, minimise wear + tear, and improve accuracy. The only drawback is the lack of documentation and original box. A nice purposeful carrying case or box will be provided instead. Seldom can one find a vintage watch that offers this and more. Yes, there are many other same / similar models in the market, BUT none are as well-kept and maintained as what you see here, and with an attractive price to boot. So, this watch will make an extremely beautiful birthday present for that special someone born in December 1970! This is a truly magnificent December 1970 Seiko 5 SUWA in excellent condition; so, be unique and wear a stunning watch that is nearly impossible to source.
