I am proud to offer one of the most iconic models of Seiko and chronograph watch history: SEIKO Pepsi Pogue (6139-6002). Stainless-steel, bracelet, dials, inner ring, bezel insert are aftermarketing.. Movement original Seiko vintage.
***The First Chronograph in Space***
This model also called "Seiko Pogue", because astronaut William R. Pogue (Col. Pogue) wore a 6139-6002 during the NASA Skylab 4 mission in 1973 (see the last picture).
***The World’s First Automatic Chronograph***
In 1969, A few big names produced automatic chronograph. However, when it comes to who first achieved serial production of the automatic chronograph, Seiko may have quietly beaten them by releasing to the Japanese market in May 1969.
