Originally purchased from a vintage collector in Japan, this 1960s “Rally” Diver from Seiko has managed to retain all of its original parts (apart from the bracelet).

Model: 6119-8300 / Rally Diver

Year: March 1969

The Re-release. The immense popularity of these 50-year-old divers led to a reimagined version of them (SRPK65/67) being re-released this year. The one I am selling today is a very early iteration of this model (March 1969) from a time when Seiko used to use “Water Proof” instead of the now preferred (due to its accuracy) “Water Resistant” nomenclature.

The Magic Button. The date wheel is quickset by pushing in the crown. It functions perfectly.

The Condition. Given that the parts are original (apart from the bracelet), it’s in remarkably good condition. The dial is a stunning royal blue and needs to be seen in person. The crystal has small and shallow scratches across it (visible in the photos) but the dark blue dial prevents them from being particularly obvious. The bezel and case have signs of wear but are definitely in good condition overall. The bezel turns smoothly in both directions, as intended.

Scope: No box or manual, so I will ship it in a Provenance Watches leather case.

Movement: Manual wind 28,800 bph with 29 jewels, and a dial power reserve (40 hours).

Dimensions:

  • Case Width: 41.0mm
  • Case Thickness: 11.4mm
  • Bracelet: Non-original oyster style bracelet. Fits up to a 9" wrist.

Delivered in a beautiful custom stamped (Provenance Watches) leather travel case. Makes for a perfect gift.

    FAQs

    Are your watches authentic?

    Everything we sell is 100% authentic.

    All of our watches are inspected and verified for authenticity - both inside and out. We have over 15 years of sourcing and collecting rare watches in Japan, which is often considered to be one of the best markets for authentic and fully original vintage watches.

    Do you ship globally?

    We are based in Japan and regularly ship all over the world. We typically use FedEx and it takes:

    • 3-7 business days to reach North America
    • 3-7 business days to reach Europe
    • 3-7 business days to reach Asia and Oceania.

    All of our packages are securely shipped, fully insured, and trackable door-to-door.

    What condition are your watches?

    Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of the watches we typically sell, the condition varies from watch to watch. However, our photos are high resolution and our descriptions are accurate. You can buy with confidence knowing there won't be any nasty surprises.

    If the condition of a watch is ever misrepresented, we would offer a full refund.

    Are all of your watches serviced?

    Most but not all of our watches are serviced. The "Condition" section of each watch will confirm if the watch has been serviced.

    All of our watches are tested by an independent watchmaker - if a service is needed, the watch will be serviced. If a service hasn't been conducted, it's because the watch itself is too new to need a service, or there is evidence of a recent service.

    What payment methods do you accept?

    We accept payment by all major Credit Cards and Wise.com

    Do I have to pay customs or taxes?

    It depends on so many factors, including but not limited to the cost of the watch, the type of watch you've bought (vintage or new), and the import laws of your country. If you're unsure we recommend checking the import laws that relate to your country before ordering.

    Are your watches water resistant?

    Our serviced watches are typically tested to their original water resistant specifications, but we would never recommend pushing vintage or neo-vintage watches to their depth limits.

    What is your returns policy?

    Due to the vintage and neo-vintage nature of most of our watches, we do not offer returns under normal circumstances. All sales should be considered final.
