So, today I completed this one. It is a Seiko King Turtle with black dial. I really did not care for the cyclops and so I got a Top Hat crystal, this is the thinner one at only 5mm thickness. Also I liked different hands on it do I replaced the hour and minute ones... I left the seconds hand with the gold shaft because I kind of like it.
These are my favorite Turtle models, after my touches of course...

Looks great. Who makes the crystal?

Like the loss of the cyclops, Carlo.
Not feeling the hand-set though, maybe that's because I've been wearing the Doxa and got used to the smaller hour hand.

Thank you. The looks of a watch is always a personal thing, taste and preference. This is actually one of the reasons I like to do my projects, I can make them look more closely to what I prefer which in many cases is different then other people.
One thing that I really like on this model is the bezel/insert.
Here are a couple of pics showing the crystal.
