Tackled my first crystal swap!

Today was the day. I have had a double dome crystal from Crystal Times for the better part of a year. I had already polished my SNK809 and just needed to do the crystal swap.

I was pretty anxious about it as I had only seen a video or two, but hey, gotta start somewhere. The removal of the issued mineral glass was pretty fast and ended in a million pieces. 

Overall it went well. These are the straps I currently have for it, but I feel as though it needs something different. The leather band is kind of a let down as it seems far too skinny for my liking. 

Do any of you have any suggestions  for a proper band on this newly double domed Seiko?

Excellent, I have an SNK803, and I might have to look into that. Looks like the watch looks even more retro with a domed crystal. Very nice!

The SNK803 would definitely look more vintage with a double dome crystal! You really ought to do that and share photos!! And thanks!
