You have so many watches and that is your only mechanical chronograph?

I am generally a dive watch guy, specifically a vintage dive watch guy. This Seiko 6138-0049 “Bullhead” from 1974 is me getting out of my lane. Why do I have it? I love the crazy case shape (several millimeters thicker at 12 o’clock than at 6). Love the pushers on top of the case. Oh, did I mention the colors? Brown dial, maroon tachymeter, and gold sub-registers. Sometimes it’s good to get out of your lane.

What I like about Seiko is how easy they are to date especially if someone is looking for a specific month AND year. Here are two 1974 "Pogues" from my vintage Seiko stash.

It looks like you're hitting a major milestone this year! May I ask what month?

Agree that the serial number system on Seiko is awesome. Frankly wish all brands did it. Really helps to place their watches at a moment in time.
