Just asking.. Anyone mod their Seiko 5? Mine is 7S26, so mechanical wise is a NO NO for mods, but how about the dial, the case, the lume, strap, anything..
I know leather or Nato strap can be found, but other than that, seems impossible.. Can teach or share?
Thanks.

QUOTE(wktan90 @ Jul 28 2013, 06:11 PM) guys, why you you all never mention about seiko premier? anything not right with this or overprice? Divers is just too tempting for Seiko fag, including me.. TBH, when I happen to passby watch shop, first thing to look for is Seiko diver series.. Other than that, nope.. Not interested.. Even if passby Omega or Rollies, still diver's series.. Other than that, not interested.. LOL XD

Gentlemen, need your advice.. Last Friday went to Queensbay Mall, Penang and found some orange and black monster with new movement (4R36).. .. Ask for best price and they give me RM 800.. Reasonable??

QUOTE(Everdying @ Oct 11 2013, 06:28 PM) anyone here can recommend a watch guy who isnt afraid of doing mods? basically replacing crystal etc and doing pressure test. already asked a few established 'watch repairer' shops here...and they are reluctant of handling non-original parts. i am finding one myself.. currently, my beat-up Seiko 5 need some TLC..
