Mine is the : Classic Sea Dweller SS BP Best Edition Black Dial On SS Bracelet SA3135

Ahh yes, the SA is no longer.

That’s the same as I acquired through sead. it’s with Adrian now. I’m having the SA swapped out though for SH and some other parts.

Here are two lug-hole models but with the newer bracelet. (2002 transitional models = lug hole case and newer bracelet)
See the attached links:

Great dial !!! CONGRATS
where did you source it ?

EDIT :
Isorry ... I've been a little too fast ...
Thought it was a glossy tritium 16660 dial ???? one like I'm searching for (at a fair price ... that's why I don't find)
Really great dial nevertheless and a beautifull watch so still CONGRATS

Received mine few days ago, very pleased with the watch, it keeps great time and the date is enough centered for me. Only thing bothering me is the greenish hands, maybe a relume would fix this
But for the price I can’t complain
I replaced the original clasp with a gen 16750 one because I dislike the clasp with the diver extension
