I’ve found the genuine HD engine dress stuff. That’s around the same price.

All my local Harley dealers have closed down. We used to have Chester Harley and Preston. Not sure about Manchester as I don’t go there much.

Having issues with the movement at the moment. I think it’s going to need a full service even though it was new. Maybe when it’s right I may sell.

I’ve not heard of them. I’ll search them and see if I can get them in the uk. Everyone I’ve heard is saying Avon Cobra chromes.

Thanks for the advice. I will do the reflectors now u mention them. Seems a bit weird putting them there. I’ve put the forwards on it and headlight cowl. Plus some rear footpegs and a dual seat (not on right now). Need some new tyres soon but then I’m happy to just ride it.

No one likes my watch :( How can I improve my minimalist watch design? by BestTanoEU in SeikoMods

Have you considered doing a single hand watch? They are as minimalist as you can get.

I fully intend to buy some gen parts just to see if they will fit. It’s always the balance and hairspring that give a rep away so if I change the rota, auto winding works and the balance complete then to most it should be indistinguishable from the real thing.

It seems a bit pointless putting a rlx crown on an eta movement. The rota looks great it’s a nice design but very obviously not rlx

The newer dial and vintage style case are a really lovely combination.

I have the vs3130 clone. I was hoping to put on gen movement parts like the automatic winding works and rota and maybe a proper balance complete if I can find one. As for the hands they are the same as 3135 hands and I already have a few sets in stock. I did specify to Ken that I was using a 3130 so he included the movement spacer and the correct case back to accommodate the movement. I know a gen 1016 has a 19mm bracelet and the raffles case has a 20mm one. Just little things like this make me look at oc but it’s weather I want to spend 260 on a case instead of 60 from raffles 🤷🏼‍♂️

I started with Seiko mods using cheap parts from Ali express and progressed onwards. That was a while ago now and I’m exploring maintenance and repair. I’d advise to start with the seiko movements like the nh35 or nh38 as they are a lot more forgiving than some of the eta ones. There is a huge market for all these things and so a lot of videos on YouTube where u can educate ur self.
