I never said it was a mod T ? I said I own a couple of his mods:D this case is widley produced and is either Asian or a Fricker...not sure which Bill is using and is used by many manufacturers....Bill makes great watches and he is assembling along with final QC/CS as you stated...you will note the disclaimer at the bottom of his page about Blancpain/Swatchhand6.gif Bill is also using the Selitta SW200 unless he found some eta's but that was what was last noted on his page and the SeaFighter is 200m wr...I have been following this watch since the release of the Stingray which is basically the same watch just different aesthetics/hands,markers and crown positionwatch2.gifthere will be a Swiss Made version for pre-order and a non Swiss Made as well:) Here is a link to Eddies LE PRS-50 which is more than a homage imho...using the movement in the LE as Blancpain did in the original and a non LE using the etahand6.gif

Gumba,
I wouldn't call this a Mod...Bill builds these from the ground up..High grade ETA 2824's, metal movement retainers, 300m WR, etc. though the dials and hands are from his Mod collection:)
