Snap. Arrived yesterday while I was at work.
Not long now until that first proper look in daylight.

How good is the silicon strap!
Might look a little long in the picture but extremely comfortable.
Sorry if the photo is a shocker. My phone is having a long, lingering, flickering death.

And then there was light...

Slightly better 馃榾
Though I need to make a better effort to make the bezel, chapter ring, 12 o' clock marker look aligned 馃槵馃槖
SRPC49 (K1?)

Finally have the twins reunited in their serviced and ckeclea beauty!
Silver dial is a 6217-7000 I picked up with no caseback, movement holder and a few bits Missing as I found out from the service note from dunacn hewitt aka the watch bloke. Luckily he had the spares needed and has performed a great job getting it back to looking good and wearable at last! Had it for almost a year waiting to find a caseback, crystal and gaskets and another while. Waiting for it to come back from Duncan. He's busy because he's known for his seiko work. Bracelet is a Seiko JB champion from @Myron And i think it suits way better than I thought originally it would. Very happy!

The grey dial is a 6217-7010 that was complete when I brought it but still wanted a service so I could be happy using it. Serviced by Simon wilkinson and happy with his work too. Bracelet is a speidel BOR that came with it, again I think it suits well so it stays.
Would love the original bracelets for these but so expensive and rare now I'm not holding my breath...

Thanks again OF, here's some pics!

Second the recommendation on Duncan, "The Watch Bloke". He did a beautiful job on one of my 7548 divers (Pepsi Bezel). Spencer of Klein Vintage Watches did a full restoration on my GMT Navigator 6117-8000 with attached original and model numbered bracelet. His work is also amazing. So, one source in Blighty, and here in the U.S.A.
