Seiko Diver 6105
Just got this the other day.It will need some work I already got a crystal for it and droped it of for that to be put in and a service.It was made around 1976 And this one hacks I all ways like these old diver's thinking about having them put super luminova on the hands and dial or should I just leave it the way it is.

Nice 6105. A classic Seiko diver and very collectable. I would not relum this one, just my 2 cents.

Ernest I think you are right I belong to a few other forums they all like it the way it is plus if I have to ever resale it more like it untouched The crystal is to beat up to buff out I got a replacement that is made to the old specs a service and crystal replacement is all I am going to do.There are so many of these out there with after market parts is why most like it the way it is they call it the wabi.
