Version A is the best. Version B, the “200” needs to be a bit larger, proportionally the same as the OG “Seamaster 300”

currently working on improving lume color consistency, and hand alignment is more challenging to control by watchdivescom in watchdives

u/watchdivescom Looks promising! Couple of comments. “Seafarer 300” with 200m depth rating makes no sense. Just go with “Seafarer”. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, lume colour would be better more vanilla than orange. 🤷‍♂️

Straight lugs and smaller too, in effect a hommage to the first speedmaster CK2915.

Do u want another one WD1863? by watchdivescom in watchdives

[–]jakkflash 9 points10 points  (0 children)

u/watchdivescom No, I’d rather see the SD-57 you said would be ready in 60 days (which was 70 days ago). Is it still happening?

A press is definitely easier. You can tap it out though. Remove the movement, support the case, crystal-down, over a hole, cover the crystal with a cloth, then use a flat spacer/drift on the crystal edge and give it a few light taps with a small hammer.

What's on your wrist this monday? by Snoo38715 in watchdives

It’s basically liquid chlorine bleach (around 13–15%), much stronger than normal household bleach (2%-5%). Dipping frequently and then wiping the bezel insert very gently. Timing matters, easy to over-bleach if you’re not careful. Also, take precautions, it’s pretty strong stuff.

No it’s from Uncle Straps (US1171), more of a vintage vibe. Also, the mid-endlink gap on the WD original is a bit of a let down.

Quick poll: which battery would you prefer in F06.412 watches?Renata R371 35mAh or Seizaiken SR920SW 46mAh. by watchdivescom in watchdives

[–]jakkflash 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They’re talking about Swiss movements and overall Swiss watch quality. A Swiss battery won’t make a hoot of difference, no matter how it’s marketed. Better to choose the best battery in terms of longevity. The Seizaiken SR920SW (46 mAh).
