I got a seiko mod - yea or nay ?

While it definitely draws some heavy stylistic influence from the crown 👑, I intentionally asked for adjustments. Thoughts y’all?

I mod. While have one with a "Yachty" case and another with an "Explorer II " case, I try to make my watches my own.

Yeah I’m going to remove the cyclops when I get a chance. And switch bracelets too.

I went with nay but only because of the cyclops

I feel that. That’s the one thing for me too tbh. I think it’s a fun watch but I’m also thinking I gotta ditch that 👁️ cyclops

Meh!

I would have left out the cyclops, but other than that, it's pretty cool.

It's a well-executed mod, I'm just not a fan of the crown styling.

Totally fair imo. Preesh🙏🏾

If you are going to go for a mid or clone….why Seiko and not some higher end brand?

I wasn’t trying to fake anything. Just borrowing some cues I like.

I agree with nicely. It’s a good looking watch.

It’s awesome you took cues from what you like. I just started getting into modding and building my own. And they definitely all have design cues from what I like.

I am pro-cyclops here - I would keep it. Also, a jubilee bracelet or like beads of rice could be cool too. I have modded some watches, one is my favorite watches right now - so maybe I am bias but I say wear it around and see how it feels.

I used to dislike the cyclops too until I found myself grabbing my loupe to read the date so I could set it on my GMT. Now I see the utility (even though I still don't like them).

Yeah something blingyier would be good. The experimentation is the best part - here is my mod for the day. ✌️
