As someone who owned a silver dial 6139-6002, and has wanted a true reissue, this model doesn't come close. I understand that Seiko doesn't currently make a single register chronograph movement like the 6139, but it seems like the could produce a VK6x mecaquartz movement that would come close. Nothing about the SSC947 is close to the 6139-600x, except the colorway. The case, the crown and the rotating inner bezel are all different or missing. So Seiko hasn't "Brought back the Pogue", except in the most superficial way. Compare this to their "Willard" reissues, that get all the main details right even if they're not 1:1 copies.

Yeah nah! I have an actual Pogue (Resist Dial from March 71) and an Aussie Pogue (Nov 76) which is closest to this colourway. I also have a May 1970 5 Sports "Proof Dial" notch case version winging its way to me as I speak. This here is basically a cash grab. That angled date at 4.30 looks STUPID and is a total deal breaker. Also the sub dials should be same colour as the dial, and there should be a DAY and Date at 3. and most important of all, the movement should be automatic. The only similarities are the colour of the dial and the Pepsi Tachymeter Dial. On it's own this watch is fine (apart from that ugly date - please at least make the date aperture circular and the font on a horizontal bias rather than angled. Even their 40mm auto speedtimers have their dates like this. Anyways this piece is not worthy of being called a Pogue Tribute. Good review though.
