Looks great on the waffle strap! I had the SPB051 and loved it (except the dang hands! But I switched them out for 62Mas-style baton hands). It's very versatile, and the bracelet is great quality, as far as Seiko bracelets go. I sold it to fund my Marinemaster 300, unfortunately. But I'm happy with that decision. I still might find the PADI version, though....

Seiko SKX007, quite famous dive watch with a bit of history.

Pair it with $100 Oyster bracelet and you are good to go.

Looks like mine. I picked mine up in 2005 and wore it every day for years. The janky jubilee bracelet finally stretched so much that I started wearing it on NATOs. Love it, though. Nice choice.

Thanks. Mine is the new Strapcode super jubilee bracelet. Very nicely constructed with solid end links, beefy jubilee links and flip lock clasp. Comfortable too with no hair pulling. For little under $100 it totally changes the outlook of the watch and wearability.
