You have to ask the TD's.
The stock for this watch is nearly "zero". Write to some TD an Email for a BP SD. Perhaps they can source one.

These "old" Sea-Dweller are now more and more disapearing from the TD sites.

I did this exorcise as I wanted a second watch, they are gone! M2M is a buyers best bet.

I have a version with a miyota 9015 that i was ordered from Toro, for the price she's perfect and the movement is very reliable and running like a charm.
Maybe I should make or buy a custom clic spring to improve bezel feel and remove play but since 2 years i have never done it...
I'm surprised that i had not found in these pages lot of subject about this version of bpsd.

Ok, I’m going to order the 2824 version. Any thing I must consider or ask for? I mean something related to versions or different batches? If I buy now... does this mean that I will get the rejected ones from previos qc orders?

Any help would be very appreciated

If the watch is OK for you, then take it. Look at the QC you get and if you agree - enjoy the watch.
I think you should be happy to get one ;)

The daily beater is back on the wrist and working beautifully after a recent service by ado213.
New crown fitted so I can now wind it up without it slipping and also had the date wheel fixed so it doesn’t stick in between dates anymore.
It’s like a new watch, many thanks Adrian, great work!!

I've just received some pics from my TD but damn I see the DW misaligned … still haven't approved it.
Although the watch is still not in my hands, and still havent' approved it, I don't like the insert, and, without buying the gen, I've found this one that looks very good... I know It's problably written somewhere in this very long thread but I try... what do you think of this insert?

Ok, pics approved and new insert already bought, I'm now looking forward to receiving it 'cause I need to understand why there's a 553 pages thread :)

Can someone please tell me the exact measurements of TC hands or stock hands (should be the same)?

The only part at the moment I own of my 16600:

Do you mean the insert I've bought or the stock one? (I hope the second lol)
I just see the dw is not centered at all, once in my hands I'll decide what to do
