    I lately rediscovered my old Seiko automatic diver watch when cleaning out my desk. I bought that watch a couple of years ago in Dubai an used it for about 2 years until it started being slightly off time. I gave the watch to a jeweler but he did not do a very good job because after getting it back i had issues with condensating water inside the watch! :(
    The watch sat in the desk now for a few years and when i found it the straps broke off, i guess that was just material fatigue.

    Now i would like to get it restored because the watch has some sentimental value for me.

    To make it work again i will just ask a Seiko dealer to repair it.

    But i think i will change the Bezel as it is pretty worn off and i will have to get new straps, too.

    Do you guys have any recommendations for cool bezels and non-metal straps? Any recommendation and input is appreciated!
