Seiko 7002 diver modding

I received a Seiko 7002 diver, modded by the late Noah Fuller (RIP).  Noah died much to young in 2011. For those who never heard of him, he brought modding to the next level.
Anyway, the owner wanted a stealthy watch, without markers.

Here the pics of the original watch and the mod by Noah:

First I had to find a dial. As the 7002 has a date window, I had to close it. On this pic the dial is stripped from its paint, and the date window is gone.

Than I stripped and sanded the bezel. It had to be black to and without the pip. Dial and bezel spraypainted. 4 layers and sealed with varnish
