Everyone raves about @trustytime so might as well try him out.

Got a BP 16610LN & 16600.

I’m sure it will all go well.

Can I ask what made you go with BP factory?
I've owned both before from BP and they fit my needs. Now more than ever as they come with VR3135 movements which I used to have to swap into the watches when they had the SA3135, incurring an extra $100 charge and my own labor to swap.

BP is known to be the best maker of the 16600 Sea Dweller and their 16610 line up is more than I desire. I've owned both ARF & RAF and they're better but not enough to warrant (to me) the $100 difference that no one will notice.

For 6-digits Subs, VSF and/or Clean is the way to go. Mine are older 5-digit.

I'm disappointed. I expected a daily diary of you "taking the plunge" and "going down the rabbit hole". No QC pics ? I really need that alignment tool !!
