Seiko was £116 from Creation (get both!), tropical strap and dial were $50 dead from DaGaz. If you really want to make it look like the Blancpain yobokies has the modern style dials and bezel inserts ($50) as well. Crystal is $53 dollars, handsets $25-30, custom FFF caseback is $43.
So mine was only ~£150 but you could probably add another ton or more if you wanted to go the whole hog, and I may still add bits as I get bored.
