    Seiko SKX007 mod

    Hi guys,
    Just want to share some pictures of my Seiko SKX007 mod with bezel from murphys and bezel insert and dial from Dagaz watch.
    Will also change the chapter ring later. Overall i´m quite happy with the result.

    That looks quite nice! I think that replacing the current ring with a nice brushed SS one would really finish the mod off. I would swap the hands as well but thats just me.
    Cheers,

    Thanks for the input.
    Agree 100%, just need to find a crystal press, i actually have a chapter ring. Regarding the hands i looked for some new at Dagaz but decided to try the original ones. Looking at the result i think they have to go as well.

    I like where this mod is going. I have a Murphy bezel I just purchased sitting ,waiting for a similar mod. I am waiting until jake gets the rose gold snowflake hands to do mine.

    Both of your watches are awesome! Your mod is quite nice, I particularly like the dial.

    Wear them in the best of health . . .

    Nice mods.
    Those Murphy bezels are amazing. Bought 2 for my 007's and glad I did.

    Nice!

    I'm just waiting for the hands myself. I can't wait to see how the gold hands and dial will look together.
