Seiko - *Bruce Lee Automatic Kronograf* - No reserve price - 6139-6011 - Men - 1970-1979

This watch is more than just a timekeeper; it's an opportunity to carry the spirit of the 1970s and the legacy of a legend on your wrist. The Seiko 6139 series has etched its name in watch history as one of the world's first automatic chronograph movements. Introduced in 1969, the Calibre 6139 emerged simultaneously with its Swiss-based competitors, proving the power of Japanese engineering to the world. The 6139-6011 reference is known among collectors by a special nickname: “Bruce Lee” This nickname arose from the fact that Bruce Lee was often pictured wearing a Seiko 6139 chronograph in his daily life and between sets. The simple yet powerful character of Bruce Lee, one of the most iconic figures of martial arts and cinema, perfectly complements this model. The gold chronograph hand on the black dial alludes to Lee's iconic blue-red color palette. The watch's sporty look, robust case, and clear readability... It represents speed, discipline, and determination.
