Seiko 6217-8001 aka 62MAS

Thanks to CEO, I finally "completed" my Seiko Diver series with the latest addition 6217-8001 aka 62MAS.

Signed crown

Very beautiful caseback

My other vintage divers

6217-8001 1967-06

6105-8000 1970-03

6105-8110 1975-12

6306-7001 1979-04

6309-7049 1981-03

6309-7040 1981-07

6309-7290 1987-07

7002-7000 1988-11

Apart from Tunas, I consider SKX as modern and I'm missing MM300's father (6159-7001) and grandfather (6215-7000).

Not all the watches are with me now but here's a previous group shot without 62mas.

7002 is modded. Maybe I should hunt for an original one.

Not sure on the current prices but I got mine at $80 from K2 ages ago... in fact it's my first watch that I bought from K2.

Re: Seiko 6217-8001 aka 62MAS

Ah, what a bump of an old thread.... :)

The entire Seiko vintage diver found a new home, I only kept a 6309 with the same birth month/year as me.

Of all the pieces, wore the 62MAS and the slim 6105 more often than the rest, the slim form factor is really nice with leather straps..
