Seiko Chronograph Panda 6138-8020

The Seiko 6138-8020 "Panda" is the most highly sought-after vintage Seiko watch, but it's difficult to find original examples due to the prevalence of modified versions on the market.

However, this well-preserved and completely original watch from December 1972, with a fitted new old stock glass, is currently available for those looking to add it to their collection.

Condition report
This chronograph is in excellent overall condition. The case remains strong with only minor surface scratches, preserving its sharp lines. The dial truly stands out as a highlight, exceptionally clean with all hands intact, including the vibrant red-tipped second hand. While the bezel shows a few tiny bumps, they don't detract from the watch's overall aesthetic appeal.

The bracelet is full-sized and in very good condition, with minimal wear and sharp edges still intact.

The crystal is scratch-free, and the caseback retains all its original engravings, showing only light signs of use.
