路Ordered these two beauties from a Japanese online store (not sure it is permissible to mention the seller here) 6 days ago and they arrived in Canada today. Really unique dial finishes that are stunning in different lighting situations.
More info on the enamel and Urushi dial production here:

Both watches have Seiko's 6R27 automatic movements.
The Presage SARW011 is the white, enamel dial. Difficult to pick up in the photos but the dial is slightly recessed where the hands of the dial and subdials travel. It looks very nice as you tilt it and it catches the different light.
The strap is a very dark blue color, almost black. The strap is listed as crocodile, a little too glossy for me.
This is very similar to the new SPB045 that will be launched in September of 2017. More info regarding the new models here:

The SPB045 will be 40.5mm rather than 39.5, like my SARW011. Also, the new version has Presage printed on the dial, mine only had a Presage hang tag.
My new SARW013 is identical except for the Urushi dial, a black, lower sheen strap and specs say 1mm larger at 40.5mm.
