TODAY'S UPDATE - CLASP REPLACEMENT:
The original clasp that came with the cheapo oyster bracelet held okay -- but honestly wasn't befitting to this build.
While non-WIS people might not recognize the Dagaz logo on the dial, I'm sure they will recognize the "Seiko" label on the clasp -- hence, harkening to this SKX031's origins:
But what a WIS might discern is that this ain't no ordinary clasp.
Especially when the ratcheting extension is exposed:
Because the clasp is longer than the aftermarket poo-poo clasp, removing links included the removal of "permanent" links. A hammer & expendable knife does quick work to pry open them "unremovable" links. When there's a will, there's a way.
Further refinements to come...
