I have to Thank of Course @ado213 and @Tickleshoes but also for inspiration and guidance @M_Hall @Maron @tripdog @Timmetje83 @lukko @occb2 @Raddave @FastPaced and so many others who have stuck with this great thread for years.

Adrian @ado213 is currently working on another SD for me it will be more like the first one with TC parts but I'm a bit stuck on gen crystal, WSO or @rnrprof 2XAR with AR on the inside only.

Thank You all.

Unbelievable build @Thrasher well worth the wait.

Adrian is a master at these builds.

Unbelievably my collection is down to one piece at the moment and it's the only piece I can't ever see myself selling.

I've owned mine just over a year and Adrian's work is solid.

Enjoy it.

Is this a standard BP with Yuki Dial or did Tripdog build this for you?

Hi guys! Today my SD from Sead finally arrive, here is a pic:

Just joking...can't resist to do that! XD XD :hehehe:

Anyway...

The watch feels very good so far. I like it very much! Even the bracelet don't seems to be so worse like I read in this thread. The only problem that I've found is in the piece of the bracelet that close on diver's extension. The closing mechanism does not work well because the recess on the bracelet is as it is worn out, I will try to contact Sead and look for a solution.

This is my first ever buying experience in replica from a TD and I'm super satisfied with Sead that is a very nice guy!

Here are two "serious" pics:

congrats, nice watch. Got mine 3 weeks ago and had it every day on my wrist.

Unfortunatley i have to let her go for some time cause of some small mods.

After that i will post some pics...

@SUBMG are you saying the divers extension is loose? if so, nothing much sead can do about that. If you really like the watch you can switch the bracelet for a tc or a jf bracelet

Not the diver extension itself but the piece of bracelet that "clip" on it. TC bracelet will be perfect but impossibile to find sadly...I attach some pics of the problem

That's not worn out, it's new, and (badly) made in China. Pinch the sides of the claps cover together so that they put a pressure fit on those links that fit inside it -holding them in place inside the clasp cover.

Anyone who can point me in the direction of a gen bezel? I search TRF every now and then without luck.

I got one offered here for $600 some time ago, is that a normal price?

 

[M_Hall]

I picked mine up on TRF, I paid a little less than $600 but not a lot less.

Sometimes it's worth sending a PM to some of the regular dealers on there as sometimes they can get parts even if they are not listed for sale.

Guys, I'm thinking if it is normal that the original crown on my bpsd is brighter than the whole watch? Is due to the steel(316l),where the crown is (i guess) 904?

And, does anybody who own a gen, can tell me how the helium valve works on the gen? I mean, if push on the valve, is moving?

You can try bending the diver extension slightly, the piece with the Rolex engraving size S, bend slightly and try again if it's still loose. That was what I did with mine. Hope it helps!

Thanks for sharing that buddy, not a big problem but my extension kept coming undone but now seems to snap shut better.
