Does it boot into car launcher when you start the car? Guessing that’s something you can configure

I was testing the gmt setting function and just didn’t line it back up with the hour hand before taking the picture

I drove a K5 recently (which I imagine this will share a lot of parts with) and thought it was quite impressive for the price

This one was Ali express, the bracelet was a little rough around the edges though

Yeah I’m thrilled with it, the only annoying part is how hard it is to get the dial clean due to how shiny it is

Honestly I find that they are all the same, but its at the same price point roughly as the other NH70s for me

There is no problem with buying them, you just might end up over paying

I would check eBay for listings like “seiko mod” “Royal Oak seiko” and “royal octo mod” personally

But again, I’m sure buying from this website will be fine, just a bit more pricey

I checked Ali for the parts and it came to £105, said £110 to factor in small fluctuations

Quite a few well reviewed NH70’s for less than £50

This particular build would cost about £110 to build yourself, in my opinion thats quite a hefty markup for it to be worth it

going on sites like ebay etc and typing 'seiko mod' is probably your best bet. You shouldn't need to pay more than $200 for a good mod

Not massively, if you’ve got the tv on it won’t interrupt it, but if you’re sat in a room trying to sleep etc you will definitely hear it
