First custom Seiko mod with custom chapter ring
This is my first attempt at a custom Seiko mod, the chapter ring is silver set with diamonds.
The idea came from seeing the moon surface dial and wanting to have some sort of rocket ship element.
I'm happy overall but there's lots I want to change. The crystal I don't like the chamfer as I think it obstructs the chapter ring and the watch case I will do round next time.
Pictures aren't great but will try to get better ones!

New to the watch world, love the idea of designing and making my own watches. I have created my own designs and have attempted to make a case from scratch.
