Now that the vintage Seiko Professional divers are 3k, are there replica dials?

[RickFlorida]

Now that the 70's Professional Seiko diver Grand daddy tunas are like 3,000 dollars, is there someone making replica dials? I actually don't mind if it's sterile but love these large huge round markers. Can I find these somewhere?  I also like the vintage Dodane diver dials but doubt anyone replicates those.

Looks like there is an aftermarket one on Ebay so I guess I'm good. Just need to find a quality case for it.

Okay I will thank you.

I am now wondering which case to get. But I'll check your search suggestion./

I checked their site.  The quality of their items looks great but I didn't see any dials anywhere near the 600m Diver I was looking for or cases but I like the quality of the items they sell so thank you and this may be useful in the future.

I have been searching incessantly for a GS diver dial, but it is not available as a replica or as a homage....

After a long time I managed to find a good quality one for my build that was finished about a week ago.

Here is the result:

Yeah I found that aftermarket dial and think I'll buy one. But where can I get a quality case that looks similar to Tuna Seiko with a shroud?   I wish someone made a sterile replica of the titanium once piec case that you can only service from the front.  We should crowd-fund a sterile titanium case that works just like the Seiko tuna that you service from front.  Can I ask what case you are going to use?

this one is not front loaded but quite nice....

I will put my dial in this case:
