California Dial Seiko Mod
My mod started with a crave for a california dial watch. I looked around and found a great seller that had a lot of seiko accessories. 10watches.com
I bought a california dial, an all black bezel insert, a black glossy chapter ring, sword hands and a red seconds hand. All the above for 100$ shipped from Hong Kong to Kuwait in 7 days! Noah even shipped me a bunch of extra hands for free. I emailed him thinking it was a mistake and he replies "I always try to ship some extra items for free", how cool is that! I'm extremley happy with the results but I think the dial/hands would of looked better on a non bezel rolex like the Seiko SNK809. I'm also not too sure about the jubilee bracelet with the new setup. What do you guys think? Any ideas for a strap? What do you think of the bezel insert? Thank you Noah from 10watches, I rate your items a solid 10/10. :-) |

Cool creation and great link. I like what you did but after going to the site I thought that the red numeral bezel would look cool also.

Jubilee bracelet is really killing it..
Perhaps a nice thick aged leather Look at the straps on some of the Panerais.... Something like that might bring it out!

Black leather strap with white stitching would look fantastic on that

And on leather, I think we might have found a winner.
