Thanks. It was a custom build I did. I bought a Seiko OEM dial from USA the case was AliExpress, strap was Amazon. Then I bought an nh36 and there ya have it. This pic is with the Jubilee bracelet that came with the case. As you can see that pic was before I changed out the seconds hand for the blue.

I think it came to me on a leather strap, when I bought it from a lady in Detroit if I recall. So I put that bracelet on it from a Citizen I couldn't fix. You can see how the end link is very straight. But it suits it's understated look. :)
