That is the PERFECT SKX mod. Thank you for the links... and the work/fun that you put into the videos. Really an enjoyable learning experience. Not many pupils would say that; Understand? Reflect a little? There's value for US in YOUR hobby. It's appreciated.

Skx has this thing with its simplicity. Bought the 009 as my first mechanical watch after watching so many videos about mods, had all these mods planned (first ones in my life) and now that I have it I love it so much the way it is that I almost think its a pity to mod it hahahahaha. Might have to buy another one to do the mods hahahahahaha.

Nice simple mod. So great, that you can basically order an SKX this way (I think they're in stock, at least as of a few days ago they were) from Long Island. Great looking too, Seiko's best looking case, imho. Thanks, Rob!

Beautiful. Bought this watch today and excited. Havent been really into watches, wore only timex and gshocks. Trying to step it up a little bit.
Rob, the watch looks great. You always do a great job with these mods. Those of us that get our watches modded by RR should be in a club like those people that got their cars on “Overhaulin”.

Sweet! This is what Seiko should have done with the venerable SKX divers tool watch line, (instead of discontinuing it). Simple upgrades, slightly upmarket, while making the watch more durable and functional. Good example of the 7s movement, can be as accurate as anything out there and very rugged. Yeah, I like hacking but the simplicity is part of the charm.

Am little confused abt yr channel. Thought y only show watches, which are for sale. Understand, y also work on changes of watches for others. My 1st generation Seiko 5 sports monster needs to replace its bezel into a 12h GMT version. Is that something y would be willing to do? Cheers Achim, Singapore+

My channel is to show watches, as many as I can. So that anyone looking to buy that model of watch has another source to help make the decision to buy or not buy. As for doing mods, contact “Lume Shot” on youtube he does mods.

Man I like that watch. I love it. Problem is, my G-Shock GA-1000 A is accurate to-the-second with the atomic clock at time.gov, and accurate for months. I tune the time once per year. Being infected with OCD, my mind simply refuses to accept that five-second-per-day accuracy is OK. Its fine. Its perfectly acceptable. But no, it isn't, because in two days its 10 seconds off, and in a month its minutes off, and who wants to constantly reset their inaccurate watch? See the problem? Tell me you see the problem! :)
