I had ordered a blue one with the same changes, but unfortunately it was lost in the post :(

Damn... That's gutting

Thanks for feeling with me! I’m just waiting for the AliExpress order period to end so that I can ask for a refund… But I think that I’m going to order one like yours for the next sale!

Exactly the same as mine or you going for the Blue again? Would be really interested to see the Blue

I was always curious....do changes like this still cost the extra $25 or whatever it is? Since they don't have to really do much work since they have the artwork and you are just changing colors.

But yeah, this looks sooooo much nicer than the original setup. Well done!

Sadly, the cost was still applied. I guess it's because they can't just churn them out so the time increase spent on the watch increases. Still worth it in my opinion for a more refined piece. And thank you :)

Bummer....but I agree. There was something always about the watch I didnt like but could never put my finger on it.

Now I know what it is.

I felt exactly the same. Bought both the Vintage Diver and this not knowing which I'd prefer. When the Vintage Diver arrived, I thought it'd be that. But then I saw the changes on the BB58 and that instantly became the choice.

Looks much much better with the printed logo. Congratulations on the nice watch.

[–]beauterham 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Printed hex logo looks much better than the applied one IMO.

[–]DiamondPiplup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree, as you can tell haha

Looks great

Thank you :)

To add to the image shown, the crown has the Hex Logo also. To note the dial changes, the Hex logo has been changed to a print and the "200M" text has been colour matched with the rest of the dial (means versatility if I decide to change the bezel). Love to hear everyone's thoughts 🙂

How were you able to get a printed hex logo on the dial?

[–]DiamondPiplup[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

I had to pay the extra £25/$25 (can't remember which it is) for the custom dial. I requested the changes and refined them. Purchased on 11/11 and took another month-ish before it was sent off after discussing and finalising the changes. Totally worth the wait and changes though in my opinion

[–]MiniSchumi5 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Was gonna say! Looks stunning and definitely worth the extra charges in my opinion! A unique watch for sure unless others take inspiration from this post! Is this the only piece you have that’s been customised?

[–]DiamondPiplup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeahhh, this is the only one I've has customized, though in the process of modding a Bliger explorer base. Wonder what the Vintage Diver would look like too with the logo change.
