    Dude you completely misunderstood the purpose of this watch and how to wear it… I’m pretty sure that this watch since it’s a true divers watch is intended to be worn over the sleeve of a diving suit, and if it’s not used for diving you should still wear it over the sleeve of clothing you have on, it is for long sleeve clothing only that’s for sure.

    No se donde aprendiste a montar mods, pero no lo estas haciendo bien... Nunca se monta el bisel, antes de estar el reloj ensamblado, ya que, se puede dar la situación, que despues quede el chapter ring torcido, respecto del dial y del mismo bisel. Rectifica y aprende un poco. I don't know where you learned to assemble mods, but you are not doing it right... The bezel is never mounted before the watch is assembled, since the situation can arise that later the chapter ring will be crooked, with respect to the dial. and the same bezel. Correct and learn a little.
