Kelly- I would give darn near anything to have the original..
seiko I got in 86 and lost in 89. You won't forgive yourself if you get rid of this one. At 100-150$ to totally fix that up, yes, you could get a new seiko.
probably a good plan would be get a skx007 (the descendant of your 6309) best price I have seen is a little over a hundred bucks at chronograph.com.
save up to fix your old one, send it in to randal or another master, and never get rid of it!
the shape that is in would be lucky to get you 50 bucks if you sell it! you'll never have antoher watch you had over 20 years like that, that value is irrepalaceable.
