Seiko 5 Explorer mod.

I had my Seiko 5 SPRD case sitting around. So I thought I would do an Explorer dial and do something different. This is my 4th modded watch. I don't want a replica or homage. And I know it makes it more Frankenstein than anything else. But this makes these watches my watches more than any other watch I own. I like it that way.

Case: Seiko 5 SPRD w/blue bezel insert and chapter ring

Movement: NH38A

Dial: Namoki Explorer

Hands: Sumo minute/hour, MM1000 second

Band: coming soon. It's on order.

Well, what do you think? And you can be honest. It won't hurt me. It's my watch and is not going anywhere.

Frankenwatches are the best watches because they are unique and show your personality! Having the skills, tools, and patience to mod your watches or build a unique piece to your taste is invaluable.

This explorer dial paired with the sumo hands looks great! I also like the blue-and-white theme you got going with the chapter ring and the insert. Greater pairing overall!

I love Explorer dials and I love dive bezels and I hate the two together.

But for some reason, I LOVE THIS!

Great job!!!
