Chapter ring swap/mod
I am wanting to swap out the chapter ring on my 5KX. I am thinking either a brushed silver with black markers, or a white ring with black markers. What would fit better? I was thinking the brushed silver matches the lettering on the dial, as they appear to be more of a silver tone. I also like the contrast with the white, and it seems that it would match with the lume perhaps? It’s hard to tell the difference in the pictures, but what do you all think would work better? This is my first experience with modding a Seiko, so I am wanting to start out with some simple easy colors, but still make it sorta pop more.

I think the white would look great 👍. While you’re modding your 5KX, think about a solid case back rather than the exhibition one. I changed mine and it reduced the overall thickness a bit and lets the case sit better on the wrist. That’s my experience anyway.

Thanks, I like the sound of that! I will look into that as well.
I’m a big fan of the SRPD95/SRPD73 for this reason. I also like that it has a worn Converse look to it that I love
