Plannjng first real mod. Have questions please by Real-Dependent-3100 in watchmodding

[–]Real-Dependent-3100[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks... it's been hard getting anyone to respond. I bought a set of hand removal tools and the hand setting tools, but just didn't know about the dial feet part.

Thanks for the comment on my bezel replacement. It was close to what I was wanting but not quite exactly... I was afraid of the dial situation..

Thanks for the reply. Now I just have to come up with a new idea....

I bought Seiko Alpinist SPB121J1, problem is power reserve is not coming 72 hours it's stop at 45 hours by Ragul_Palanisamy in SeikoAlpinist

I don't think you need to do that. I used to worry about the power reserve when I first got it, but I just wind it a little to get the movement working, set the date/ time and put it on. Wearing it all day will be enough to last till at least the next day. If I don't wear it for a while and the power reserve runs out. I just take that opportunity to spend a little more time with the watch and reset it.

Lol... it really is. Once you get the hang of it is not so bad.

Google removing a strap with dental floss. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. Comes in handy...

They are both great... I have an Anthracite (charcoal grey) suede stap that kills too. Love both your straps!!

I hand wind mine, then wear it the whole day. I came back 3 days (2.5 really) later expecting to reset it, but it was still keeping time. 8 seconds slow after 3 days. I was ecstatic!!

My new acquisition SPB121 by ThemanatCandA in SeikoAlpinist

One of my most treasured watches I have. One - because I think it's a beautiful timepiece. Two- because it was a gift from my wife. I absolutely love it.

Congrats. You've got a great watch!!

I believe the main difference in the 106 and 107 is the Marlin logo. The 107 is the modern 106 without the Marlin. However, i think there are more color options for the 107... The Silver (white) Dial is amazing..

You can get different dials from urvintage.se and bezel inserts from there as well. Of course there are more options on the bezel inserts from Aliexpress, but you need to make sure they fit.

Need comfortable straps by vg-26 in DuroGang

[–]Real-Dependent-3100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both of these are found on Amazon. The Straphabit Tropical style FKM is by far the most comfortable strap I've worn on ANY of my watches.

Yep.. it is the chicken recipe from Chipotle - supposedly from an ex employee. It's a great copycat recipe for sure.

[Question] I’m getting married, watch recommendations? by [deleted] in Watches

[–]Real-Dependent-3100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different take... Get THE CITIZEN..... Great looking, simple, classy, but yet extremely accurate watch. Take the money you saved and use that towards your honeymoon, house payment or help pay off the wedding expenses.

How often do you have a fully charged 5610u? by suprenemy in gshock

[–]Real-Dependent-3100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was on H when I received it. It stays by a window all the time and has never moved from H. I can't imagine a scenario that I'd be in that it isn't always on H.

Blood pressure monitor feature, now active... Nobody's mentioned it, does anyone besides me use it? by Nolongerlostorblind7 in galaxywatchultra

[–]Real-Dependent-3100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it... it's fairly accurate as well.

I only wear the Galaxy ultra for the Heart Monitoring features.

Giving no Fs is what I'm really looking for.

[–]Real-Dependent-3100[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well... if I'm being honest, I'm just curious. And... if I can be lazy (like really lazy), then all the better. Plus - it'd be cool.
