The earliest we'll see the old style Seadweller is probably early 2010. It will be Mid 2010 before WM9 even thinks about producing this model. If you can wait until then for the super ultimate AAAAAA+++++++ best swiss 1:1 version then more power to you, but I think you're better off getting a v5 or another v and modding it.
I've had mine since January 09 with the "improved" reliability movement with skeleton gears and it's been going strong. I hack the movement when I'm not wearing it to reduce wear and tear on it.
Absolutely stunning and great review with pics and video. Mine is arriving in a few days from Angus and it's good to know that it's not likely that I will have buyer's remorse as I sold a few reps to fund this purchase and it's the most expensive rep I've bought to date. Is this the 28.8k bph movement?

I wouldn't buy from that dealer and stick with known and trusted dealers, but it gives you an idea of what to expect.
