Seiko 6619-8060 MAC-V SOG w/ Vietnam history, serviced 2024

$825.00

Made in June 1967, this example of the first type of Mac-V watches. There were three versions of the Mac-V watches. These were the first, and were private-purchase pieces that were bought at the PX. The later models, the 6119s and 7005s, were issued. As befits a private-purchase example, this one still has its original train track bracelet, which has a clasp hand-stamped "VIET NAM VIC 67 _ 68". I am told the original owner was a military photographer.

  • Seiko 6619A orange-text movement is in good condition.

  • Caseback has four servicing marks, one dated "24". Based on the presence of oil under the cap jewel and a fresh caseback gasket I would guess it was serviced in 2024.

  • Movement looks bright and clean.

  • Original lume is patinated by contact with humidity / moisture, but is physically intact

  • Hand metal is good, no corrosion

  • Dial edge shows some warping from some previous servicing
