So I bought a set of skx007 hands to install in my mini turtle. The mini turtle hands, especially the minute hand on the padi version, look anemic.

Who can do it for me? It needs to be done on the spot while I wait.

one of the reason im staying away from the mini turtle padi pepsi.

i was very interested in the turtle. but after your photo i guess need to change plan. the watch seems huge.

gotta check on some local retailers and compare the sizes.

IMO, well it doesn't affect South East Asia as the model still available. You still can find it here in Malaysia.

When Jeremy Tok says the hands are touching, you better believe they are touching. You obviously have no idea who you are dealing with.

There is no way this incompetent gets to touch this watch again. I don't deal with idiots.

Since you butchered my watch and cannot make good the damage, I ask that you stop performing this service for others until you know what you're actually doing.

Until then, everybody should avoid Yook Hong Seiko mods.

I believe this is a new watch. Not even a year.

Does changing the date from 9pm till 3am really damage your watch? Have anyone had bad experiences?

can order from ebay then ask local watchmakers to fix for you

but then you have to check whether is it cheaper compared to thong sia  nod.gif

Bough sarb033 recently for 1.7k with the certificate and japanese book. 
After google search only realised this watch stop production in early feb 2018.
The back case there show 951066. This make me doubt that the watch is a genuine product.
The available code info online about 951066 show the watch is make in the year end with 9 at the end etc year xxx9, n 5=may. The box and time piece is new. And i dont think they will keep the timepiece for 10 year before selling  it.
Any sifu here can clear my doubt?

Cool watch. But looks huge on your wrist.
Have you repaired your previous watch? The padi turtle.

No, I haven't had the time or attention to deal with the padi mini turtle. I mean to fix it myself, but I can't justify the opportunity cost. I'm not in the mood to deal with watch repair people either.

that's sad man. hope the turtle returns to your wrist one day.
