Custom Seikos
Hey been looking into those modded Seikos for some time now and I have to say some of those look amazing!
Just wanted to share some pics with you guys, what do you think?
I know some of the members also of some custom Seikos, would be cool to see those.

Nice looks great, did you do that yourself?
Yup you pretty much can change everything and Seikos seem to be the most popular ones to mod. Either you buy the parts and try doing it yourself, which might end up in a big mess, or you just find someone doing it for you.

I dont know about the base, just that they almost only use Seikos.
If you look around the net you hear about this guy all the time:
Home - DAGAZ WATCH LTD.
His stuff is amazing. He has a lot of parts, finished watches but also makes custom ones.
Other than that, I saw a lot in other forums, I will try to get a list of sites together

Think it reminds me of the 'McQueen' Explorer. Love that watch.
