Description

Up for sale is an incredibly rare, highly collectible piece of 1960s horological and military history. This auction includes a vintage July 1967 Seiko Sportsmatic 5 paired with an authentic, vintage Waltham W.C.C. military strap compass, all mounted on a period-correct olive drab green nylon field strap. This specific 6619 model reference with the Arabic numeral dial is legendary among military watch collectors. It is the exact style famously purchased through military PX exchanges and worn by clandestine US Special Forces (MACV-SOG) operatives during the Vietnam War because of its durability and high visibility.
