Found this on ebay and the design really speaks to me. Still, I'm not quite sure if it's real.

I'm going to guess it's a mod; assembled from aftermarket parts. It kinda looks like it, and the caseback doesn't say seiko. Care to share the listing?

Edit: closest I could find is this:

There's a while community for building modded seikos.
