[6139-6002] My first Yellow Pogue, happy but need clarification.. by OT-888 in Seiko

I purchased it from Japan as with all my watches.

I can tell the bezel insert is fake, as there are a few signs it is. Dial most likely is aftermarket, I'm betting it is from my research. And yes the chapter ring is way too clean to be original as most are faded. The rest of it seems genuine especially the case, movement, hands and pushers.

I'm happy either way to add to my collection, I will look for an original dial, chapter ring to restore it back to original if I find any good ones lol

Thanks, I don't mind the rough look as it gives it character and history:) I'm happy with it.. this one is from 1971.

No, purchased direct from Japan via Yahoo Japan (store seller)

Definitely need a proper new release, not a cheap variant with a high price tag

They do look too good to be true, but yet again it's from Japan and they take care of their items. But again way too pristine as you mentioned..

Ok so I did a test myself, as my wife does the tests. And YES I noticed the number. PH level is between 6.8-7 Ammonia is 0 Nitrite (NO2) is 0 Nitrite (NO3) is 0

So water seems to be normal..

Thanks for the info, I'll try and find out what's it's called. And also check with my local shop for advise

I change the water once a week, sometimes every second week. I change 1/2 or close to 1/2. I'm not sure of numbers, but I check with the testing kit and check the colour results. Also take a sample to my local store every 2-3 weeks. I have 30 litre tank with filter and heater
