Thanks!

It's a standard issue Seiko SKX automatic diver that I modded extensively. It's been thru a TST Tuna conversion [UK], Dagaz domed sapphire crystal, Murphy coin edge bezel [NY], LCBI lumed Pepsi sapphire insert, Ajuicet dial, and Strapcode Rollball bracelet.

I've done a couple of these.

Thanks, my friend!

No cottage industry, just personal consumption and trying different mod combos. When the costs are added up they tend to be more than what most would pay for a Seiko diver.

I just love the satisfaction of combining all the elements to create a one of a kind watch w/ features I use.
