Seiko “True Pogue” Chronograph
The Seiko “Pogue” chronograph is one of the most interesting and distinctive watches from the 1970s. They have earned the nickname the “Pogue” since Colonel William R. Pogue wore a similar watch during a NASA Skylab mission in 1973, making it the first automatic chronograph to be worn in space. These are wonderful watches on the wrist and very easy to wear. This is a rare “True Pogue” model that is exactly the same reference 6139-6005 that Colonel Pogue wore with the same “Resist” dial designation. Later and international “Pogue” models did not have the “Resist” or earlier “Proof” text on the left side to indicate water resistance.
