Seiko 6105-8110 on the wrist

The iconic hack capable, Seiko 6105-8110 which I seldomly wear.

 

I'm surprised to discover that near mint examples of this vintage diver's watch now easily fetches at least US$700 on eBay. Not bad, considering that I snagged it for less than US$260 back in 2007! 😁

 

The 6105-8000/8110 series divers have been prominently featured in popular culture during the late Vietnam War era, e.g. Martin Sheen wore one on the movie Apocalypse Now! (1979) while Kiefer Sutherland strapped a 6105 for his role in A Soldier's Sweetheart (1998).
