FS: Vintage Seiko 6105-8110 Captain Willard

Hello All, letting go of a great Seiko 6105-8110 affectionately known as the Captain Willard. This was one of the few Seiko divers I felt compelled to own and really love wearing, but you know the drill, cashing out some watches to buy another. This piece runs great and hold time perfectly, the locking crown works and to the best of my knowledge the watch is fully original with the possibility of new crystal. A great telltale sign on the dial being original the rounded date window (Vs straight edge on repros). Lume looks original and in very good condition. Holds charge for a few minutes. Case is in good condition with signs of use but no major dings or dents and doesn't look like it's been polished. Bezel has nice action and clicks with each grade in both directions well, insert has some marks and scratches but still looks great. Crystal could be original or replacement, I'm not sure. Overall this is a great watch to collect or wear and holds time great. Automatic movement which only winds through motion, no manual winding (This is the way this watch was designed). Quick set date works perfectly. Watch wears amazingly well for 44 mm diver and is a Seiko Classic. I took best photos I can and some close-ups which can make some of the scratches look much worse than they actually are. Asking a reasonable $1,300 US (Net to me).
