Modded one…

So i just finished the mod of my Seiko 5. It is awsome how just some little tweaks change the hole expe of the watch. πŸ™ thank you #namoki for the bracelet, the fluted bezzel and the AR coated saphire! πŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ŒπŸ‘ what do you think about this timepiece and modding in general? βœοΈπŸ‘‡

That is one sweet design. this is modding done well. Β 

Modding is just another level of the hobby. Β Most people won't ever work on their cars. Some will tinker here and there. Β Some will create fibreglass homages. Β Some will change the trim and rims. Β Some will want to create funny cars completely out of the box. Β Looks like you had a good time with this one. Β

Very nice. I have the Uncle Seiko Jubilee and it would be interesteing to comare the feel. Were you not tempted by a domed crystal?

It is very slightly domed indeed. I like domed crystals more on toolwatches like divers. This one for me is more on the classic side for me. So, it’s fine. πŸ‘

Very nice indeed! I have the grey dial version Β with the mat bezel which came on a grey nato. I have it on a Barton hybrid leather strap but I'm after a nice bracelet. That namoki bracelet looks as cool as!

It is indeed a very well done bracelet. Screwed links, milled clasp and solid endlinks. One negative for me: is a bit light, but it is a taste thing. Compared it with the Β jubilee style bracelet from @watchgecko, that i got for my Tudor BB GMT it seems almost half the weight. On the other hand, that one is 22mm and of course the Seiko is a quite light watch as well… so it fits… πŸ‘

I was considering the watch gecko one as an alternative funnily enough. Both get good reviews it seemsΒ

For the watchgecko bracelet you need a pretty hefty watch… πŸ˜‰πŸ‘ Another point to consider is that the watchgecko one has hollow endlinks because it is a universal bracelet. but you can usi it without endlinks at all.Β

PS: sorry for that rubbish scale! πŸ˜…

It looks like namoki then as the dress kx isn't a heavyweight!
