Seiko 6139 Pogues internal bezel


Recommended Posts

Hi all... I’m cleaning up this Pogues here and have notice that the internal bezel doesn’t quiet turn fully over.. after further inspections, I know that half of the teeth that turn this haven been ground down. Therefore the gear does not turn this..

 

I want to keep this original, does anyone have any ideas on how I can repair this. Perhaps with some dried glue and the gear with just dent it?

Hello, to answer your question this is what I would do as a Seiko collector. Don't put any sort of glue on your chapter ring as over time the fine particles will wear of and foul your movement. If you need the Watch to be fully functional and original I would ask around every watch repairer and see if you can buy an original ring.Repairers such as Spencer Klein and anyone in your area, it may take a while but eventually you will track one down. Otherwise you can put an aftermarket one in, that's if you need it to be functional. These watch are very collectable as you are aware no doubt. If the Watch is totally 100 percent original I would not be to worried if it does not work, as originality is where value lies. Especially if it's a genuine Pogue 6319 6002 

Hope this helps

    • Could it be an abbreviation for Denier? "Denier (/ˈdɛniər/) or den (abbreviated D), a unit of measure for the linear mass density of fibers, is the mass in grams per 9,000 metres of the fiber. The denier is based on a natural reference: a single strand of silk is approximately one denier; a 9,000-metre strand of silk weighs about one gram." The pivot gauge looks interesting, however I wouldn't trust myself to drive a pivot into a wedge incase it jams and gets damaged/snaps trying to get it free. More a comment on my ability and incompetence than the quality or design of the tool 🤣
    • @clockboy The damage on the movement much worse. The images against the green background are my watch the other 2 are from the internet. The rotor has erased the perlage. I am surprised how is this watch still running.
    • Hi All, I recently bought a few gauges on Ebay. One of those was my actual target, a roller jewel gauge. Pictured below was one of the other gauges I received. From what I gather, this one is for measuring pivots. No sure if I'm right here. A confirmation of my assumption would be great. The gauge also has an abbreviation of "DEN". I have looked around and don't find this relative to watchmaking. Any clue to what this abbreviation means? Thanks, Don
