Got this 6139-6002 Pogue today; my first Seiko
Just picked up this Pogue today. Actually didn't know anything about these until yesterday or the whole 1st automatic chrono in space story. Runs, but needs a new crystal and a service. It was very inexpensive so I'm happy with it. I think it's all original but I'd appreciate any of your comments. Also included a pic of my other two space related watches: a 105.003 Ed White Speedy (also waiting for service) and a 3570.50 Speedy. Thanks for looking.

Looks great!
Looks correct to me except the bracelet appears to be a later service oyster. You may want to know that this is not a first production run (not a "proof" dial and is without notched crown etc) and was probably manufactured in the late 1970s. A great watch...
Thanks for the response. Is this bracelet correct?
Marked "Japan Z" on the clasp. Do you think it's original to the watch? Is my version still referred to as a "Pogue", or is that name reserved only for earlier models? Thanks ...
Certainly a Pogue, and the bracelet...
Oh, it's certainly a Pogue! The dial, insert (outer bezel), indicator ring (inner rotating bezel), hands, and crown look original to me, which is to say, nice find! These are increasingly difficult to come by. The reason I mentioned that it was not an ear...
Thank you the info...
I found a serial # data base that puts production of this watch in Feb of 1976, so looks like the bracelet is original. It's always nice to find something that hasn't been messed with but just needs a good service to breathe new life into it. Nothing wron...
Great! And yes, remarkable indeed
A watch production year of '76 confirms that this bracelet is period correct. Great! After '75, this tapered "H" became Seiko's darling, and you can find them on the popular dive model of that era as well. I completely agree, the auto chrono did appear qu...
Very colorful, and an informative discussion
although I was around and even in college when this watch was produced, I knew nothing about it. Thanks for sharing it, and Matthew for enlightening us. Cheers, Cazalea
