marvin376 Posted December 3, 2012 Report Posted December 3, 2012 Hello, my new Rolex Sea-Dweller arrived today. I bought it from a RWG member The mods are: case from a Seadweller Octopus which has exact the same dimensions, HE-valve and CGs of a SSD case CGs reshaped and re-smoothened sapphire from new seadweller, nice and clear, no LEC - raised almost like a SSD V1 (I have one to compare ) original noob SSD dial with WM9 superlume indices transplanted TC superlume hands TC latest edition dw (good alignment) verified swiss ETA bezel from Seadweller Octopus, a little flatter than noob SSD bezel, but lets the crystal pop out nicer Seadweller Octopus bracelet of course a matching seadweller caseback standard insert, nice lume, but not superlume What do you think?
alligoat Posted December 3, 2012 Report Posted December 3, 2012 I've never heard of the Sea Dweller Octopus. Maybe you could explain where it comes from. The watch looks nice, but I'm not sure about the end links on the bracelet- here's a gen to compare with And another pic of the same gen No wokky rehaut on the gen either! Certainly that was always the biggest drawback to the SSD-V2- the wokky rehaut
marvin376 Posted December 3, 2012 Author Report Posted December 3, 2012 Sorry,but what is a wokky rehaut? Is the Case from the Ultimate Sea-Dweller better?
marvin376 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Posted December 4, 2012 One question to the experts: Will gen parts fit to the octopus case?(crystal,crown,bezel insert) Or is the ultimate superlumed case the better option?
dutchguy2 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 Sorry,but what is a wokky rehaut? Is the Case from the Ultimate Sea-Dweller better? If you don't see it don't care about it. As soon you see it it will border you like hell.

danielv2000 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Posted December 4, 2012 border? Oh bother.... Wokky rehaut means the inner engravements are a ugly. No! Wokky rehaut means that the inside of the case looks like a wok... Hence rehaut. It's the angle of the inside which slants too much.
