The 729X models don't get the same love as their cushion-cased brothers, that's for sure. But they're great watches!!

I've got this one (with the quartz movement dial, hands etc from a 7549 tuna).

The closest I'll probably get to a vintage Seamaster 300...a 6309 Seikomaster 300!Svand said:i just bought a beat up one and was thinking a hybrid but need some inspiration from my fellow members
Here's two for you...
6139-7290 with heavily shaved case, hand-enamelled rotating ring, modified crown, Noah Fuller dial (relumed), 320W10GN00 domed crystal and aftermarket 6105 style hands:
The 7548-700H "disaster watch" with another shaved case, relumed dial and hands, Planet Ocean insert, modified crown, 320W10GN00 domed crystal, sterilized back and the GREAT new "shark" mesh. Am [i]really[/i] loving the mesh bracelet, it's meaty but so very comfy. The case and bracelet are media blasted to my favorite low lustre MIL. SPEC. style finish:
