Seiko 5 6309-8620 With Misaligned Dial

[steve855]

some of the seikos have the crown at 3:45 instead of 4:00. it escapes me which movements these are. this might be the simple case of a 4 o'clock movement placed into a 3:45 case. it will fit but i will be off by a few degrees.

I think this is the answer. Here's one I got in a parts lot. 6119 movement and dial in a 7019 case.

I think the 6xxx series mostly have stem at 4:00 while the 7xxx are at 3:45 or something similar .

Yes. But most people including myself says crown at 4 for brevity.

I have a few of these Seiko 5s all from Indonesia . They are good but like Cuban cars, made from 100 different brand parts:)
