Very cool. I remember when they did this one and I never pulled the trigger on it. Finding any MKII Seiko parts these days is always a delight.

Awwww Man! Stop putting pic up on here! That's very cool. Not usually a fan of bead blasting, but could make room for that one! What's the bracelet please buddy?

thunbsup.gif I think the bracelet is the one that came with the Sumo, he blasted it the same as the case. It really came out nice. I was kinda skeptical when I first put it on but it it really grew on me and I love it. This might be one I have to release tho, I have too many unused toys.

I am going to assume it was pressure tested since Randall did it. I don't think he lets many watches (unless it is very vintage) out of his shop without testing it... I don't take this dude diving tho, I mostly take the tuna. =)

Love the bead blasted finish. You don't hear about to many people bead blasting anymore. I seems to hove gone from bead blasting to PVD coatings to people just swapping out dials and bezel inserts and hands nowadays on their MOD's.

PVD is SUPER expensive and if you really want a PVD then get one already PVDed. That said, I love some PVD mods. ha ha!
