**Yes. You read that correctly this is a WANT TO TRADE THREAD for users in the US. Trade value is $1300.** Hit me with your best **NEAR EQUIVALENT VALUE trades only**. We're talking +/- $200 tops. I am interested in Oris, Farer, Citizens, Microbrands, Tudors, etc. All trades in this value range will be considered (some more quickly than others 😉) ---- Many people are familiar with the more popular Seiko 6138-8020 two register 'Panda' chrono, but this variant is special for a few reasons: * (1) it was produced by Seiko's Daini factory (see emblem above sub-register), which was often associated with lower output, higher quality, and dressier pieces * (2) it is only a compact ~37.5 mm x ~42.5 mm L2L, leading to the 'Baby Panda' moniker * (3) it is a vertical clutch flyback chronograph, meaning you can reset the chronograph hand during operation without stopping it first, which at the time of production, was pretty impressive tech in a modestly sized watch like this. I love everything about the design and execution of this watch, so much awesome mechanical tech crammed into a tight package. Truly a timeless piece. It's elegant, understated, sporty, and still manages to be clean as hell, representing an excellent example of Daini’s design language at the time. Heck, even in addition to the compact flyback movement, it has a push-in crown to change the date which is another complication you seldom see on watches. **Condition:** * Incredible nearly NOS level condition, truly a collector’s piece. * All original parts to the best of my knowledge **Specs:** * 37.5mm width * 42.5mm lug to lug * 18mm width **Additional Info:** * Watch comes with the original bracelet and a brand new black and white racing Kvarnsjö Leather bund strap. * Bracelet will fit a wrist of a maximum of 6.75” and does not have additional links. **Photos and Timestamp** * [Photo Album](https://imgur.com/a/xpFhNzn) * [Timestamp](https://imgur.com/a/r9MyuAs) **Payment:** * Venmo, Paypal F&F, Zelle. **I have instant messaging intentionally disabled.
