FS: Seiko 6309-7040--MINT & RARE VINTAGE DIVER

SOLD in 50 minutes 3/14/2011 on Watchuseek.com

Up for grabs is a watch i have no doubt i will kick myself for selling. This is the famous cushion case vintage Suwa Seiko 6309-7040 diver in MINT ORIGINAL CONDITION. There isn't a single item on this watch that is aftermarket. The watch hasn't even been polished. This baby belongs in a safe it is so clean and unmolested. The size on this beefy diver is around 45mm including the crown. This is bigger than the seiko skx007's that you see rolling around the forums and most definitely rarer than most divers out there because of the unbelievable condition. I waited quite a long time to find one like this but it is time to let it go to the next collector who can appreciate it as another timepiece is on the horizon.
