Another turtle build because one just wasn't enough
Ali case set is fairly priced but also very nice imho, you just need to tighten up the bezel and it's good to go with at least 50m WR (I can't test deeper)

Interesting effect. It should be called the ebony and ivory dial. BTW, how do you go about ‘tightening’ the bezel.

Re: SRP turtle "tennis white"
I would like to know too.
Back in the day, we used dental floss wrapped around the lower part of the bezel to tighten it up.

Re: SRP turtle "tennis white"
Bezel is held in place by a metal spring that's an open dodecagonal shape. First you need to remove the insert, its attached to the bezel with double sided tape so nothing too difficult. This way you gain access to the spring and can remove it, then
You just have to bend the angles further so once back in place the spring makes more pressure towards the bezel and voila.

That sounds more professional than using dental floss LOLkilowattore wrote: ↑September 22nd, 2021, 5:28 am Bezel is held in place by a metal spring that's an open dodecagonal shape.

Re: SRP turtle "tennis white"
It always amazes me how many so different, but good looking watches you can make with those Seiko kits

Re: SRP turtle "tennis white"
Very cool! Also, to me the dial design looks like the yang kicked yin's ass - or is it the other way around?
