Nice this is clean or vsf ? Can you show to me the code on the dial ?
I can tell you that Clean doesn't make two tone Seadwellers.

I can't really help you here regarding identification. VSF, KF makes 43mm Seadweller two tones I think.

Clean SD 43 mm from @jtimewatch. It feels great on the wrist (about 18 cm), though on photos it might look a bit big. I already have gen hands (not yet installed) and would like to find a gen crystal as well.Iit's stock for now

The bezel seems to be a bit loose. Can it be fixed with gen clickspring? Do you think it's worth that upgrade (usually around 200 usd)?

Not sure, but someone will chime in. I love my VSF! The bezel has the slightest bit of back play, but it doesn’t bother me. Trying to find gen parts for these is a bear. I wish deep made a crystal. Calling @xing_david 😉

Enjoy it! This hands will look nice. To be honest, I’m find myself wearing this more than most of my other watches. There’s just something about it.

Hey guys,
I'm planning to swap a crystal from my Clean to a gen one. Do you think that original gasket will work? And in general would it be really critical to have a gen gasket for a crystal swap if I'm going to have it waterproofed? At least 5 bars.
Do you think that it's reasonable trying 10 bar test? I can only swim with it in a sea (just surface) and 5 bars should probably be enough though I'd feel better with 10 since it's a kind of standard for swimming

I think this rep can easily pass 10 bar if all gasket is greased properly. HEV valve also has gasket that needs greasing.

Imho 5 bar is enough for swimming with this rep. 10 bar if you plan to dive with it.

I remeber @CTbeforeLP had his pass 6 bar no problem.

Crystal and gasket.... you can try both but I ptobably thing gen gasket if u use gen crystal. Just see what works.

Great, thanks for the info! The package I'm buying has no gasket included but seller can add it and asks how high it's in mm. Maybe you (or anybody else) knows and can tell?

Someome is doing this swap right now, there's lots of good info. It seem gen gasket may have some thinning required.
