    One of the coolest vintage Seiko’s I’ve seen. Very nice condition. What model is it?

    The genesis of this watch is an NOS case c/w crystal and bezel of a Seiko SBSS 015 - a 1990s reissue, from Yobokies.

    The 7S movement, caseback, crown & stem, dial and hands are from other Seiko 5s I own.

    It’s been a whiles since I’ve talked with Harold. Did not know he was offering things like this. Been almost 10 years since I’ve modded anything. I’ll need to check him out.

    Hi Everybody...

    very sorry i have been AWOL lately... i've been working part time sporadicaly lately to the point i really really exhausted .. sometime i take wrist shot but can not post it here due to bad internet coverage when i was away or lack of free time..
    i quite surprised that i don't have as much energy as i used to.. well may be i'm just getting old..
    the part time work has been very hard and really drain my energy... the reward is really small and barely enough but i have no choice and got to stay positive and diligent.. still i'm thankful and count my blessings..

    i'm not leaving anywhere and will catch back here as soon as things are a bit settle down and i got my energy back..

    Have a great day everybody..

    Going to my company’s annual meeting to catch up with old friends and harass my successor, who will run the meeting as I used to do.

    Yesterday’s recraft is pretty blue, but you know how hard it is to make blue Seiko dials not look black using phones to take pics!
