Post19 Apr 2012, 20:07

Finally i have it!!!!In very very good conditions and in full working order...only the black in some part is faded but ok...
The case back says that the watch was made in October 1975...i only see it on the net...my god is very chunky!!!!More chunky of the 0634-5009
So a good catch...... :-P
A milestone

Thanks friend

Here some pics....as the same... 8-)

Why do you call it a Shaft watch? Sorry to be dumb. Did he ever wear it ? As it was only released in 75/76 ish and I thought the Shaft series was earlier than that.


Great watch though, I have a couple they are very large though.

The serial number of mySeiko is 5o0001....very interesting....In which month of 1975 has started the production of 0634-5019?

Amazing watch. They have possibly the best looking bracelet ever made.

Bracelet is easily cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner - cheapo one for £20 form Maplins will do the job. Boiling hot water and washing up liquid will shift anything.

Be careful as they can become addictive and before you know it you will end up with 7 of them!

Heres the only one I have left.

There is one with problems that may be easily fixed on Ebay, currently going cheap with on 1.5days to go.

It's possibly a hidden gem as the seller hasn't included the model name in the title or description!
