AP style bracelet/case with a Seiko serviceable movement. That’s a combo I can swallow!
Came out looking amazing!🔥 Congrats
Classic daily watch turned into a conversation starter. Nice job.
There was such a method! I have also ordered Royal Oak parts, so I would like to make them.
Thanks for this video. I just ordered parts to complete a very similar project.
I have a mod like thls, but as rose gold and black dial. So fun when people think you have a $100k watch and compliment it! 😊
Questo mod e semplicemente meraviglioso fratt, complimenti
Nice one Simon.

The only problem I have had with the APM case is the screws that’s hold the strap in they are hard to get out and they are just enough thread to get a bite as well.

Then chapter ring is regular skx007 size, my suggestion it to remove the crystal, drop the CR in and refit as it’s easier than sanding it down - These cases are designed for larger dials but skx007 CR fits ok

Hello, sorry for another question but i took the glass off, but there was no way an SKX 007 dial would drop in. I tried sanding it down and inserting it from the underside but that was a disaster. I have done some research and it appears that an SRPD013 chapter will fit from the front. Do you have any other advice on how I can make this work?

@@NW-lj6oo are you taking about the dial Or the chapter ring? In my experience a chapter ring will fit, seiko dials are too small for this case as standard, so require a chapter ring - did you get the same case set from mod mode?

@@svkwatches hello, i got it from eBay but it is the same case. The part of the case that the dial or chapter ring would sit against is 31.5mm which with the movement spacer works well. Your build has the chapter ring just behind the crystal which is what i have to do but sanding the dial will drive me clinically insane. I just measured the case diameter right behind the crystal and that is 30mm, so I really need a 30mm chapter ring to make the NH36 work with the movement spacer.
What size is this dial?
I would totally buy one from you

I have a Seiko "Root Beer Bottlecap". I removed the shiny copper colored aluminum bezel, assuming I could buy an aftermarket bezel. I was told there are none available, so I asked and authorized dealer to order me a replacement bezel. I was just informed that Seiko has no spare bezels. Can any suggest an alternative?

How did you change the crown position of the watch from 3.8 to 3 in the same movement?
@svkwatches
Ай бұрын
It just depends on the day-wheel for the movement, you can get day wheels for 4 Oclock or 3 Oclock crowns so the day-date lines up on either. The dial feet are cut then it’s stuck down to the movement in the new position - as I the video

Well this case is designed to fit any seiko dial that is 28.5mm in diameter, I would start there and lit with an nh36 automatic movement as in the video. So you can pick any dial you like from a seiko automatic watch in that size to fit in this particular case
