Here is an unusual Seiko and very futuristic looking watch from 1973. The oval dial and crystal creates a very cool look in my opinion.
I have had this watch for years in my "to do pile" but finally decided to bring it back to life and pass it on for someone else to enjoy.
Watch houses a 6119C movement which is actually my favorite Seiko 3 hander movement as it was the first calibre I ever worked on. This movement I have serviced and cleaned and its now running well. Watch offers only an automatic movement, no hand winding or hacking but it does have quickset on the day and date wheels by depressing the crown as shown in the watch in hand video.
I have re-brushed the case in keeping with the original factory finish however it still shows some of the scratches put on the watch over the last 52 years.
New gaskets have been fitted to the case back and crown to prevent water ingress however I strongly recommend that you do not swim or bathe with this watch given its age.
I have fitted an aftermarket bracelet to this watch to complete the look. It has 19mm lugs which does limit choices but I found a bracelet with spring end links that fit a multitude of sizes which is the best compromise I can offer. I think it suits it and adds to the overall look.
Equally it would work well on a strap and 19 is available online.

from 34 reviewsAnother great watch fromTime-Tees all working perfectly and looks great.
Many thanks.
Even more beautiful in person, thanks Mike
This is number4 watch that I have purchased from Time tees and they are all brilliant , well serviced and exactly described in the video descriptions .
Am really pleased with my purchase, the watch is lovely and is nicer than I was expecting it to be.
I’ll certainly be buying again in the future
This is my first Technos and I must say I am impressed, There is so much light play going on in a refined way, the dial has "Geneva stripes", the Sapphire glass is facetted, so I just sit in the sun, admiring what happens, when I move my hand. I often ask myself afterwards, "What was the time?" and I have to look again. Due to the case is Tungsten/Wolfram, there is not a scratch on it, it looks like new, arriving with a time machine from the 70ts.
The price was a bargain, and as it was stated in the description, it is due to the small beautiful bracelet, that only my wife can wear, but she won't. ;-)
So I have put it on a leather strap, and it looks perfect, for office and party.
I am a very happy customer
The watch is absolutely gorgeous and gently humming away and another stunning tribute to Mikes skill. It's on the green rally strap which complements it perfectly. However, my wife has taken a shine to it and now wears it when it goes with her blouse, handbags, shoes etc.
Oh well its a good excuse buy another watch!
I love the 70's and I love this watch, case shape and dressy white dial. Delivered with a nice Croc. embossed leather strap and protective film on the spotless dial glass. I am very happy that this is now my watch, it's clearly a keeper.
I love my new Seiko, judging from your Web pictures and the description I knew something special was to be sent to me and oh my what a dial!, it looks like nothing I have seen before, like brown or golden colors on a bark structure, it plays with the light give all these colors.
Bracelet is beautiful smooth with its small links. The whole watch is simply a winner and I am so happy to be the owner :-)
Tshirt is top quality. Will return for another soon.
