Well the Seafarer is back from he Spa as you referred to it. And it looks amazing I had no Idea it would turn out so well. Today is my first day wearing it and so far it is keeping excellent time as well. I sent it in with out a strap and was surprised to find that it had been returned with a light grey watch band. That looks pretty good on it. But I think i will order a Black perforated old style Carrera band for it. I will post pictures as soon as I can snap a few decent ones. Is there any way to know the exact year the watch was made there are no marking on the case

Thanks
