Description
The Seiko Gene Kranz ref. 6119-8460 (with silver dial) is known as the watch NASA flight director Gene Kranz wore. We leased this exact watch to the television series “For All Mankind.” This watch was worn by the Gene Kranz character on the show. The 38mm case has its original and unpolished finish and looks very fine. This model is extremely rare and it has the earliest ‘proof’ dial, instead of the later ‘resist.’ The 21-jewel Seiko movement was cleaned and is accurate. Usually, these bezels are destroyed. This original bezel is well-preserved and only has a few scuffs. The original dial is fantastic and the hands are also original. An expensive generic coffin-style bracelet was installed to match the one Gene Kranz wore on this watch.
