Very nice! I might sell my SPB051 at some point and get one of these instead.

GREAT photography !!!! Thank you for posting.
I have the SLA017 and the SPB053 (sold the SPB071 PADI version) and this one has me interested, quite a bit due to the bracelet. What is it about the bracelet that you have reservations ?
The bezel treatment is a bit like my Great White SRPD21 Turtle LE with the concentric grooves, etc.

Thanks! Well, there is a bit too much space between the lugs and the bracelet. You can easily move the bracelet to both sides and that is not necessary. Seiko can and has done better. In my photos I have positioned the bracelet in the middle.

Ref the end links. I suspect if the milled end links are tight(er) they could not be removed unless both spring pin ends were pressed simultaneously.
