7546 quartz 6309 case with what I was told is a gen 6105 dial and handset.
Sold my gen 6105 to finance this some years ago because I was frustrated by the limited number of 19mm straps...

It's probably a reproduction dial and hand set as the lume on these is always looking moldy. white lume with black spots. I tried to create one of these but failed, The 6105 is really hard to create as the date window doesn't line up correctly and there are hardly any aftermarket parts to make an accurate reproduction. I ended up buying an SLA033

I've since bought a Steeldive with an aftermarket 6105 dial which does a decent job at €125. I'd have thought Seiko would have done a 1:1 reissue but after the quality issues they had with the 6309 model maybe it changed their thinking.

Wow you aren't kidding about the date window! I bought the Steeldive early this month and didn't really look too closely,today it appears it's the 2nd of December.
