I’ve put an ARF bracelet on the BPSD, and one of the SEL was loose (6 o’clock side I think). It may be a spring bar issue, but I didn’t have any spares to try.

Besides that, the ARF bracelet doesn’t have polished sides.

Thanks for the info :) also, there are some sharp edges on BP bracelet. Do you think they will just break-in and smooth nicely after some time of usage?

Shamefully I didn’t, got it from Tr**** T***... there are many things I do that you should probably not do.

Ordered the noob 2017 version sd 43 from Andrew a week ago. Waiting on qc pics but now I hear all factories are closed due to raids. He is hoping they open next week.

Heard these BPSD’s are 100m waterproofed back then and was worn safely in swimming.... is it still the case with BPSD’s sold today?

Picked up this in m2m a couple of weeks ago. The 16600 has got to be my favourite watch of all time.
This one has gen bracelet, gen crown and gen insert as well as waterproof. Absolutely love it but I would like to get the hands to match the hour markers due to thenlume mismatch.
I'm going to have to get reading through this monster of a thread to get an idea where to start!

If any helpful chaps would like to offer their opinions that would be welcome

Hi guys, my fairly new bp sd suddenly has a loose and slightly wobbly bezel. If you wiggle it it might even turn in reverse! What’s happening here and what’s the fix? Cheers

Sharing my BPSD with a gen flat 4 insert. Going to put in a more reliable movement at some point. This is one of my all time favorite.

Is the BP 16600 the best Classic Sea Dweller on the market without modding? Do other factorys build a better one at the moment?
