More details soon! Here are the details from the seller... This is a Hands of Time 6309, aka H.O.T. '09, made by Dr. Seiko, Randall Benson. The Seiko 6309 movement has been completely stripped down, cleaned up, replaced where needed, lubricated, inspected, and regulated. He does the same for each case part, and gasket. In this particular watch, he replaced the original hardlex crystal with a sapphire version, beadblasted the entire case, replaced the bezel insert with a custom one, and put a quality replacement MOD dial, white on black date wheel, and orange-framed sword handset on it. The lume is hand applied by Randall, and is nuclear. The work was done in 2007, and the watch is still keeping extremely accurate time and is water resistant to 150M.
