Hi Shawn
I too have one of these models and also love it. It has "professional" on the dial as well as "150m" and the Seiko rotor symbol. The lume is somewhat discoloured but the dial is in good condition otherwise, the hands look new, even the second hand. The bezel is stiff to turn, but the insert is in pretty good nick. I got mine from "watchco@vicnet.net.au" on Ebay (a fine company to deal with, based in Australia). The winding rotor, and the plate it attaches to, is loose in the back of the watch (!) but the watch still works fine and keeps time when you wind it manually! At the moment it's going to stay that way as I can't afford to repair it. I don't wear it anyway (it's way too small for me). The numbers on the back are: 2205-0760 and 760568.
You say you got yours from "thewatchcollector"? Well he is sending me some parts for my 2205, so he should be able to help you get some spares for yours. He's also sending in the same package a mid-size 4205 which will go with my other Seiko 150m divers - 6105, 6309, 7002 & 2205.
Enjoy the watch and good luck with the restoration
Cheers
Paul
