Seiko 5 6119-8203
More actions
The Seiko 5 6119-8203 is a Japanese automatic from the Seiko 5 line, built around the 21-jewel 6119 calibre Seiko produced from around 1969 into the mid-1970s. The 8203 case dresses it up: a silver dial with baton markers, day-date at three, a coin-edge bezel and jubilee-style bracelet give it the visual language of a costlier Swiss watch, which was the point of the Seiko 5: reliability at an accessible price.
It appears in Legend (2015) on Tom Hardy's Reggie Kray, the twin who curated a respectable public image; the identification is a probable one from watch-spotting communities, from the dial, fluted bezel and bracelet. Because the 6119 began around 1969, at or just after the film's setting, the choice reads as period-adjacent.
