This is a mod from a returning client. There were a whole host of upgrades to realise this Seiko SKX big grip mod. When all the parts were in the post the client decided to upgrade the movement to the NH36. This is a nice choice as he has a Read more…
I had a short email conversation with a client and this arrived in the post shortly afterwards. I know some people like to see these mods come together. Pretty much everything here is modified, all except the dial, case and movement to produce black (stealth) “Seiko Snowflake” mod. I always Read more…
Hand Repair This Seiko Samurai was sent to me by a client. The minute hand had detached itself from the pinion after some time on the wrist. The bezel spring had depressed and was no longer really stopping the bezel rotating. I’m not sure how the hand removed itself from Read more…
Seiko 6R15-03W0 This Seiko Prospex Air Diver Mod was sent to me by a client along with the bezel and hands he required me to fit. I am always interested to see what people have envisioned for their watch. It is nice that I get to bring their dreams to Read more…
