Bruce is in the house!

Pre-order from my local AD just arrived, so I had to quickly unwrap and post a wrist shot. Loving this dial and bezel.

Bruce Lee's motto was, "be like water." And now we remember him with a water resistant watch. The irony is thick.

So is the fact that the watch is Made by a Japanese watchmaker, and his Master fought against the Japanese during the War.

I just don’t know how I feel about this watch, don’t get me wrong it’s a very nice looking watch and it’s a legit brand! Personally I don’t know if I would pay £450/$500 ( estimated) for what essentially a Seiiko 5? Yes it’s pretty and decorative and has my hero’s name on it but still…just my 2 cents 🤝

That was my initial thought as well. Maybe Sea-Gull would have been more appropriate haha.

Bruce Lee wore a Seiko 5 so it makes total sense

This is a damn fine piece. I love the NATO strap. 👍

Well that’s cool. I had no idea. They should have reissued the one he had.

I love it! I have a SRPD95 and it is my favorite watch.

They think it was the 6129-6010, similar to a Pogue but with a blue dial

·

Nice catch! Dont just wind the watch like a normal person You must do kungfu to wind it please

·

Damn…the sight of that watch caused me a little loss of chromium!

·

SO damn cool! still think it would of been cooler if they made a reissue of the 6139-6010 though

Thanks mate, cool article. I have a 6139 (blue dial) in the family, but agree it would be cool to have the black dial like Mr Lee wore. I imagine there will be a re-release some day but who knows when. Seiko certainly aren't in any hurry!

I think it looks amazing 👌🏻
