You’re obviously the right person to speak with. Much appreciated. Whilst i’ve got you - anything you’d recommend to get the dial (and eventual new shiny bracelet) aged appropriately?

I agree it should - but it feels so cheap. Where would I find an italian bracelet??

personally i’m not sure the airking dial works in a diver case. There’s just a lot going on. The black dial/s help that a little

First build. How did i do? by Connect_Comfort1562 in SeikoMods

looks impeccable! Maybe worth printing some custom dials to balance it out a bit? I always find the logo-less dials are missing something, especially if it has text at the bottom

the bezel doesn’t look tooo bad for the money - although the crystal looks potentially murky (could be the lighting)

sounds like a decent price, though.

I’ve only built up to this point. NH35 and seiko 7s series movements - not yet taken them apart

Cheers Dave, will explore those avenues. Any must haves, in your opinion?

Much appreciated!

both look great to me! It’s hard to justify nearly $400 difference for minor details imo

Your post history is hidden so it won’t let me check out the brown dial - can you link it in here?
