BP Seadweller.. Best SD available Period

Can you show a better picture of the sel, showing if there is a hump or not.@Maron
So needless to say I'm extremely disappointed. Obviously this is a bp. Here are the pics. I bought both on RWG from a seasoned member so now contemplating how to reach out to him.
Like this. See the bp has a hump and the tc doesn't .
Based on the coronet on the clasp and the clasp code that looks like a bp bracelet to me. Sorry to see this. How much did you pay for it? The tc 93160 bracelets I believe were only $39 new.

Hey gents working on a bezel insert for sea dweller. Anybody here have a pearl they wouldn't mind parting with? If willing to sell obviously would follow forum rules. So Dave don't fry me on this. Thanks guys. Would really appreciate your consideration.
I read through this thread over the weekend, pretty much drooled all over the pics of the SDs. Then ended up contacting Sead to get one too.
I am looking forward to getting my BPSD back from Adrian this week. It has taken me some 10 months to accumulate all the parts I wanted use in an upgrade. It is a birthday present for my son in September. It comprises;
BP SD case and bezel
BP SD Crystal
Gen ETA 2836-2 movement
TC V4 DWO
TC SD Dial
TC SD Handset
TC Bracelet
Gen Rolex 703 Crown
Lugs drilled
Gen spec Spring bars
Movement serviced
Adrian's Click spring modification
Water resistance testing
I did have what I thought was a Gen 16600 SD bezel and insert that I purchased last December, but when I sent the watch and parts to Adrian to do his magic, he informed me that the bezel and insert were for Submariner 16610. The bracelet is a TC 93250 that was removed from my TC V6 when a Gen 93250 bracelet was fitted. In all honesty, I couldn't really fault the BP bracelet, but have used the TC bracelet as it was just lying around.
I now begin the sourcing of a Gen 16600 bezel and insert.

The right side of the SEL's could use some messaging, but at regular eye distance on the wrist it isn't noticeable to my eyes.

Thank You. the complement is much appreciated. I know how much work we put into these and I try never to add up the costs though I do document my builds , I just don't do the addition!!!!

Impressive stats to say the least! Lug holes and tritium dial really take it to the next level imo.
