Anyone seen this? It's odd with the crown at top. Bit cheap looking for my taste but it has a resemblance to the original spring drive version.

I think that one has already been named "The Unicorn"
Obviously a knock off of the true Spacewalk with the blue details and the crown at 12.
Fake it til you make it.
If you can't afford a true Spacewalk at least thsi one is all Seiko without having to MOD it.

I'm guessing this one will be dubbed the 'Unicornlet' Apart from that, it has a sort of resemblance to this... Which I much prefer.

Man I can't keep up with these nicknames. I really like these SEA-GULLs Me too! The Dragon King is one of a special edition crafted by and for Kevin Mah of US Sea-Gull. This is number 42 of only 800 which were all sold out in a matter of weeks. The movement is the 28,800bph ST2130 movement. Similar to the ETA 2824-2.

I could take all of it except the "5" sweep. Get rid of that, and I'd probably wear it a few times before the unicorn crown drove me nuts, at which point I wouldn't be able to find anyone to buy the thing.

Weird...the case is semi normal with respect to the band. One side appears to have normal lugs and end links while the other has a dedicated end. Try finding anything else that would fit or could be fit to that head

Get rid of that, and I'd probably wear it a few times before the unicorn crown drove me nuts, at which point I wouldn't be able to find anyone to buy the thing. I was looking at those when I bought my SSA098 and I thought the same thing. Just not a huge fan of the second hand on those 50th Anniversary edition 5s. Edit: I do really like the minute and hour hands though; those are from the "stargate" which is probably the next dive watch I am going to buy.And then I ended up not really liking the SSA098 either and I can't find anyone who wants to buy it either so I guess that's the curse of the 4R37... Weird...the case is semi normal with respect to the band. One side appears to have normal lugs and end links while the other has a dedicated end. Try finding anything else that would fit or could be fit to that head In theory anything that had the same size middle links would fit... But that is easier said than done.
