Aftermarket Parts on a SEIKO POGUE & How to spot them!
Рет қаралды 13,272
Жыл бұрынMy POGUE (SEIKO 6139-6002) taught me a valuable lesson. A lesson about aftermarket parts, but also that you can enjoy a watch even after finding out that it is not as original down to the last piece as one possibly (and foolishly) expected it to be after doing some superficial research. With SEIKO watches, the devil can be within the details. Nonetheless, I think it is very important to make an informed purchase, as we watch enthusiasts cannot expect to be handed the information bit from each and every dealer online nowadays, even if I wished it to be like that. Some even hide the truth on purpose, but many of these SEIKO 6139 watches were not babied but used as proper tool watches. Therefore, the spotless ones online are either real rare birds that come at a premium or someone helped a little with some aftermarket parts.
In this video, I will show you on my own POGUE, how and where you can spot the aftermarket pieces after I’ve already shown you in my other (first) video of the SEIKO 6139 Pogue, why it is such a historical and relevant timepiece!

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but the case has also been refinished. The top of the case is brushed correctly, however the tops of the lugs (the sloped angled parts) are supposed to be polished, the ones here are brushed. There are quite a few people that refinish these cases quite well now, so looking for sharp edges isn’t enough anymore. Odd that whoever did the case work did a decent job at getting the sharpness right but messed up the pattern of the finishing. But sad to report the condition of the case is consistent with the rest of the aftermarket bits. Insane how hard it is to get a good one of these now. Your only bet really is to frequent antiques shops and hope you find someone who doesn’t know what they’ve got

Not bad news at all (at this point 😄)! I am thankful for the additional clue/piece of evidence. I was already very sceptical that the case should be genuine when the rest isn't. I appreciate your contribution, Thanks!

Were you thinking that this was original? I don't have a problem restoring watches and I'm glad they have the parts to do so, assuming you know what you' re buying. It would be like buying a vintage car and assuming it's "original" and still looks like new. But you should know to check the body for bondo, etc. These watches were worn and worn well. There are a ton of really bad looking dials and inner bezels that are original, but the case and the movement are still viable. So, either wear a watch that works but looks terrible or restore it. And with a gold dial like this, a big part of the attraction is the gold dial with the pepsi bezel combination. It looks beautiful. It's got the original body and engine, but needed some cosmetic restoration. I don't think it's a bad thing. It's not 100% original, but how original is a car you modify and add wheels, engine enhancements, etc? Is your Mustang still a Mustang with different wheels, racing seats, engine performance? Yes, it is. Is this still a Seiko 6139 Pogue? Yes it is. Is it concours level/museum level original? No. But the watch was probably really bad and somebody restored it the best they can with the parts available. You're right, if you want it to be "original" then prepare to pay a lot more $. After all, it's about 50 years old.
@TiMEworn 11 ай бұрын
I did think it was original, since I had the "false security" buying from a friend with exquisite taste and longtime knowledge. Anyway I myself used to focus on vintage watch models that were very niche or unpopular (or not that easy to spot aftermarket parts 😋)where true new old stock pieces are actually available. Seiko Pogue or even the Edox Geoscope were eye openers in that regard. No problem with a restored watch! It's a journey I have to take, where there are many pitfalls. Eben though I suspected aftermarketery, it took me a while lot more to actually get the details of how to spot the aftermarket parts. Probably an easy feat for Vintage watchmakers, but very difficult for the layman enthusiaste like me! Thus, I appreciate the knowledgable comments like yours a lot!

I am a watchmaker by trade, I have over a dozen of these and in my 40 + years at the bench have noticed significant fading,clear coming off, lume gone black, the list goes on. Aftermarket is the right way to go, you cannot buy original parts. You can however source very good copies of the bezel insert and also the entire bezel. The hands you can buy are great, but NEVER use the aftermarket sweep hand as they do not work, also the tear crop hand is a fit once only item, you cannot remove and replace as you would an OEM because the material quality is just not there, but the min and hr hands are great. If someone wants a nice watch with a dial and bezel that have had the shit beat out of them for 50 years then that's their choice. Remember, this technology is no longer required, we all have phones or smart watches that do far more than these old things. So what does it matter if some things are slightly off? Personally, I would prefer all my watches to be restored as close to original as possible and for them to look like brand new. I use only high end aftermarket stuff and I won't complain about such minor things as indices being slightly off, who cares, the technology is 50 years old. They are used as a dress watch these days, NOT for yachting.
@TiMEworn Жыл бұрын
Your points on the scarcity of original parts or the impossibility to have some original parts as replacement make complete sense. It was still a revelation to me, how much was aftermarket in this watch. I only found out because I put the watch out there and did more research afterwards (especially since I try to be transparent and not mislead anyone). I liked and still enjoy the watch visually, that's why I bought it in the first place from a friend. He wasn't aware either. It's just good to know pre-purchase. I like a bit of wear and tear if it means that the watch is still all original, but I also try to get well-preserved originals, which at the price point of this Pogue should have already been impossible or a major indicator for aftermarket pieces. Knowledge is key. Hope it did not come off as if I was trying to bash anyone for having or using aftermarket parts! Thanks for your comment!
@kikurass322 Жыл бұрын
One of your points is the rings in the sub-dial, the Pogue did leave Seiko with no rings, early versions only. I have one on my bench currently. Sometimes these dials are so hard to detect, the only true method is base materials used, most aftermarket use aluminum, the more expensive use brass just like the originals, what they don't have however is Seiko's stamp on them. The only serious thing that truly shows yours is a copy is the lume. No company ever produced shiny lume, it was Radium back then and it is a very dull, yet corrosive finish. I purposely remove the lume from aftermarket dials and replace it with Bergeon lume. Also, as someone else in the comments mentioned, your case has not been restored correctly. I would suggest your next purchase to be either, a well informed one, or buy from a reputable seller who offers a warranty of no less than 12 months, like me. Not many people will replace Seiko's original 12 month warranty 50+ years later :)

@@TiMEworn You seem a little bitter over this, which basically means you're not picking up the signals I am sending :) There is nothing at all wrong with your watch, sure the indices may be slightly off and it shows aftermarket lume, but what would 'you' prefer to look at, a nice looking replica of a famous dial, that reflect exactly as the OEM ones did, or look at a beaten to all hell and back dial that is faded/grubby and generally abused? The gold Sunburst dial works just as well as Seiko's did. I had a number of NOS dials from the 6002 series, I compared them to the copies and both under artificial light and daylight, the reflection was the same. I'm sure as demand climbs, better products will become available, but here's the kicker, who, other than you, looks that close? No one walks around with a magnifying glass ready and willing to seize your wrist and inspect for aftermarket parts. Stop your analytical pursuit of perfection, it will never happen with a 50+ year old watch, be happy that A: it has the OEM sweep hand. B:it has good quality replacement min/hr hands. C: The bezel from 6 inches away would never be picked as a copy, D: the inner bezel you also state is aftermarket and you say this like it's a bad thing, it's not a bad thing, they work and better yet are UV protected, unlike the OEM counterparts. Of course there are good ones and bad ones, the bad ones fade pretty fast, the good ones are only a few $$ extra and will outlast the originals by decades. Are there better dials than yours? Sure there are, but so what, Seiko quality had their issues also. Just enjoy the watch, remember how you felt the first day you saw it, and stay feeling that way, it is a nice passable restoration of a watch that NEVER left the factory perfect anyway.
@TiMEworn Жыл бұрын
No, not that bitter. I currently wear and like it and I had some nice bonding moments and discussions about it. I think it is a discussion worth having and I tried to Show the details as well as possible since these are often offered as all-original with the intention to fool someone. There are very good NOS and original pieces of 50+ year old watches available, just rare. Some models less than others. As pointed out in other comments, Seikos were used, not babied. It just depends what you are looking for and willing to pay. Hope we are on good terms,since I really appreciate your input! 😄

I have a Pepsi Pogue that I personally have owned since 1972 and had it serviced in 2022 and have only worn it a few times since. A fine watch. It was my go-to through USAF pilot training through the first Gulf War and Bosnia deployment before stopping and going in a drawer for another twenty years. I am so glad that the rebuild parts for the seals were available on eBay as Seiko no longer had them. A great watch!

@pokie6087 14 күн бұрын
I for one am glad that well made pattern parts are so readily available. Original dials and hands at this age are likely to be a faded crumbling mess, and are no longer available from the factory. These parts allow us to bring our watches back to their former glory. If you were restoring a vintage car, you'd most likely be using non genuine after market body parts, trim and panels etc, so I really don't understand why watch enthusiasts get so precious about this.
@TiMEworn 14 күн бұрын
I am with you. Better to have aftermarket parts than throw away a good watch! That said, looking for your first POGUE is a bit of a minefield if you do not know the telltale signs, since most sellers will not accurately point out the aftermarket parts beforehand. My Pogue is very much enjoyable for me, but the friend that sold it to me was also fully convinced that he has an all-original time capsule, which just happened to be pristine. He was a bit shocked to learn that it was _not_ all original.
@danthomas9658 Ай бұрын
Brilliantly informative video mate. Really helpful for people with what to look for. However, I dont think its bad to own a watch with aftermarket parts. Many 6139's these days look horrendously mouldy, aged & crap after decades of aging. No one turns their nose up at a modded SKX. I personally had to upgrade mine to an NH36 for example after the 7s26 movement died. I then threw a sapphire crystal on as well. This is commonplace, so im not sure why pogue fans get so critical about pogues that have been restored & upgraded from looking like trash to like new again for a new owner. That being said, once you know what to look for, a decent all original specimen can be found. I recently picked up an all original blue variant. But I wouldn't be adverse to upgrading say the crystal if it got really scratched. Upgrading a seiko to prolong its life isnt a bad thing imo.
@TiMEworn Ай бұрын
Thank you! It's true, I think the Pogue "suffers" from that historic relevance a bit there. Since there is a "true" Pogue out there, it means that you have a watch close to that and original or you don't. It doesn't make it any less silly, I know, but that's just some attempt at reasoning, why it's a thing with (yellow) Pogues. But I agree that a modern, modded or restored version aren't any less cool in my book at this point!

I bet collectors of a vintage would prefer all original parts in most cases, but face the same problems with availibility&price.

No, not a crime at all! As some watchmakers also pointed out to me after my video, it is near impossible to find some of the original spare parts, so aftermarket it is.

As a watchbuilding amateur, I myself wouldn't want to work with rare original parts on a DIY project 😄 In general, I own also another Frankenstein watch (Certina Chrinolympic) as well and love it. It tells its own story, but of course some are purists in this hobby that wouldn't touch it, since it is not 100% authentic condition. But that's everyone's own choice of happiness!
