Hi Guys
This is a real puzzler, Came in only a Seiko sealed cellophane/plastic with no part number, lovely bezels but hey Ive done tons of research & also Duncan's been looking & we have had no joy. from the front looks like the same bezel pip as the Arnie but its not as the number one is different & also teeth on the back are different. Anyone able to solve the mystery, Thanks in advance, pics below.

It looks like a 6106 rally diver bezel, but with a 6309 diver style insert. I believe the bezels and inserts are interchangeable between these watches, so maybe just a mismatch?

Scratch that, I just found a pic of the underside of a rallye bezel and it's nothing like yours.

These are original sealed in packets & this is a ratchet style that clicks, I have lots of rally divers & none click. Cheers.

Could you give some dimensions please? Inside diameter of bezel would be useful, as well as insert inner /outer.

Looks to me like it's from the later 7002 series of divers which had the large pip but used the same click ring as the 7S26 SKX series of divers.

The 7002 divers bezel insert inner diameter is 31.5mm - so I think this one's too small, as well as having the single cut bezel grips.
It's a teaser for sure.

Could it be for Pulsar Diver?

Looks a lot like the one on a Y514-6009 150m diver. Can't find my measuring device to check sizes.

Nice one, Ive just researched google for this model & I think you maybe right, Found some pics of it from a few angles & it looks identical so I would appreciate them sizes when you have time Sir, Thanks, Regards stefan
