Sorry, missed above points....anyhow, looks nice and based on discussions on Angus' thread over on geek it appears to be quite a few steps above the last version.

ooooh my first post! just seen a preview pic on puretime! looks lovely! altho the strap seems pretty poor? have seen far greater straps from a company called brady straps or something? i really like the idea of modding a seiko 5 to kinda rep a blancpain 50 ? could anybody point me in the right direction for this?

To be honest I think you would be better off and happier with the Blanc 50 and upgrading the strap than to mess with a Seiko

Loved that design from the first moment on and as I didn´t want to wait really started messing around with a Seiko SNZH57 - here´s the result:)

The Bradystrap - sailcloath with gold stitching is fantastic - can really recommend it for all kinds of watches - comes with a special inbuilt release and its own lugbars- super

Only part missing was the red pointed seconds hand so just applied some acrylic paint - there it is
