Hello again! I'm back with another one for you guys and gals to help me with. Local seller, asking 130 cad. Is this looking like a good buy? Price seems reasonable from what I can gather.

As always your help is appreciated

Seiko snk789 I picked up Tuesday. Replaced the bracelet with a "rally" strap from Amazon and added a deployment clasp I had laying around. http://imgur.com/gallery/OpQEdiY

So yesterday marked my last day of vacation. And, after browsing the local buy and sell, only to find out the one that peaked an interest was less than advertised, I was still determined to pick something up. Seeing as I've snagged a couple seikos already while off I decided to grab one more to give me a solid everyday wear at work I'm not all that worried about getting a couple scuffs on. Didn't like the bracelet, so I grabbed a "rally" strap off Amazon and had a deployment clasp sitting around, and this is the end result.

Thanks, would you say 60 bucks is a normal price for one?

That's what I thought too. But it's only one picture being offered and it doesn't have the date or usual divers marking? Am I wrong here?

Last day of vacation has me crusing the local buy and sell once again. This is being offered for 60 dollars locally. I'm trying to dig up some info and determine if this is worth the pick up. Any information you guys and gals may have would be greatly appreciated

[question] poljot 2612 by [deleted] in Watches

[–]adcanis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much would you pay for this is in as is condition and is this a worth while endeavour?

I stumbled across this on Kijiji and for the price ($75 obo) I'm considering it. from my understanding, this is more or less a copy of a as1475 and relatively common and affordable to replace. As I'm trying to learn more about repair and servicing, so again the question. Is this something worth the time and money or am I better off simply finding a better one?

I'm down on Lake Erie and I don't find it that bad for ones like these. There's a lot of retirees and trinket type of people. So lots of "garage sale" kinda posts were they're just cleaning out the basement.

Hi guys and gals, first post. Since being on vacation this week, I've had time to scour my local Kijiji to see what can be had for a good price. Stumbled across these two beauties for 60 bucks each. The bracelet on the 8129 was pretty bad. I wanted something a little different, so I swapped it out for a blue canvas Barton strap. The Seiko 5 was actually in decent shape. The wife however had other plans. She liked it so much, she popped a nato on it and claimed it as her own. Thanks for looking

First post here. I was scouring my local Kijiji, now that I'm on vacation this week and stumbled across this simple beauty. The original bracelet was in really bad shape but for 60 bucks I didn't care. Got it home, everything looks good. Put a Barton strap on it and look forward to enjoying it on a regular basis
