Just received it! I had an Omega branded JBChampion bracelet which is a good fit imho:

A cool little watch, it will be very nice with a crystal, service and maybe a crown.

I do love all of these black Seamaster technical dials posted. I just recently acquired this 135.011 with the white technical dial. Dial has aged a bit, but I rarely see the white technical dials come up for sale.

My two 135.011s, need to fix new hands for the black dialed one. Although I quite like the "improvement" some one has made with painting the hands white..

Hey @Davidt do you know if the white hands on my technical are correct? I thought they where repainted and where supposed to be stainless steel, but now I saw yours and it has the same hands. Any idea?

Pretty sure they're correct.

I’ve been looking for one of these for a bit. This one showed up locally last week. Case shows signs of a previous polish but otherwise the condition is quite fair.

Pretty happy with it.

I've had two of the black dial 'technic' Seamasters and ended up selling them both as I felt they were too small for me.

But, I can't get away from the fact that I love the aesthetic so here comes another. This latest one has a black dial with the red crosshair and manual 601 movement. The dial isn't perfect and the crown is wrong but it still looks great.

I suffer from the same dumb disease, I keep buying and then selling those 🤦

If only they were 36mm... 1016 killer.

I just stumbled upon this informative thread...I recently purchased a couple of the Seamaster 165.002 with military dials (very happy about the finds) and want to purchase a vintage BOR bracelet for one of them. Which bracelet and what end would I be looking for? Thanks in advance.

I think it's the 7 row beads of rice with 570 ends.

Thanks for this Davidt.

Anyone else able to confirm that would be the BOR bracelet that would be compatible with the aforementioned watch?

It's certainly the 7 row. The 5 row is too old for this ref. It's just the endlinks I'm not 100% on.

Great, so it’s a BOR 7 row and hopefully another member can confirm the end links. Here is a pic of the the sister watch that arrived yesterday. There are definitely some subtle differences between the two.

I plan to get them to my watchmaker in the near future and we’ll look at the serial numbers to establish date of production. Thanks again.

Picked this one up a while back. It’s in rough shape but I like the patina of the dial.

So many nice examples made me feel the urge to dig up pictures of my black pearl as well. Sorry to say it rarely gets any wrist time...

I've owned a couple of 165.002 but this one is one of the nicest I've seen so far.

What is the bracelet on this one?

There are several references and some are without reference number. If you search the forum and google they're easy to find.
