Important Note on Water Resistance:
At TEMPO PRIMA, we believe Vintage watches should not be worn in water, regardless of their original specifications. While this Seiko 6139-6031 has been fully serviced and fitted with new seals, we do not pressure test Vintage watches, and therefore cannot guarantee water resistance. To preserve the longevity and integrity of these timepieces, we strongly recommend keeping them dry and avoiding any exposure to moisture.
We encourage you to review the photos carefully as they provide a detailed look at the watch’s condition and originality.
Vintage Watch Ownership:
As with any vintage watch, please note that while this Seiko 6139 has been fully serviced, it may not keep time to modern quartz standards. Vintage watches require careful handling and occasional maintenance to preserve their functionality and charm.
