What time is it? Watches and horology

Think the green suits it best. I've seen a few Pepsi dialled watches with Gren nato's and it's looking like a great combo across all of them.

After seeing Murtles suede strap, I think I need to reassess whats on my other watches as I now need one haha

Oops, thought I had.
Having issues uploading from my phone with a dodgy signal

Anyone here have a Sinn, particularly the 756?

I have a 556 a, love it. Been looking for a black 756 for ages.

Dayyyymmm son, that is a fine ass watch.

Just popped into the Omega boutique on Oxford Street, I like the Tintin.

Guy at work is obsessed with the Hulk Submariners so has a green bezel on his SKX. Will take a pic.

Here it is!

I have this one that Murts modded for me - change of face and bezel

did you have the domed sapphire on your 55f? It's starting to get closer to the price of the Helson than I thought by the time you sort out dial, crystal, hands to do it proper! But I do quite fancy the tinkering. You've caused me no end of thought. Any photos of yours?

The ultimate Seiko Pepsi is still the Pogue.

They both look great. Can't wait to get mine now.
Almost want to get an SKX007 as well to lightly mod.

I fancy an 7002 for modding

If you don't like importing from Japan I got my SNZG15 from Monsterwatches.nl, the guy stocks lots of Seikos

MIne was mid-domed. I sold it a few years ago. Will see if I can dig out an old photo from old backups.

My itch for tinkering is currently being scratched with a stripdown and rebuild of an ETA 6498. https://secure.eta.ch/CSP/DesktopModules/ViewDoc.aspx?tabindex=2&tabid=28&DocId=627&DocType=DT

^ This movement will be going into my first attempt at a full watch.

I have a case, dial, hands set and strap that in theory, should look passable when all stuck together.

You're a braver man than I Stonehedge. I like the idea of messing with movements but looking at that lot I wouldn't know where to start. I watched a video this afternoon of a watchmaker servicing an Omega Chronograph movement and it was insane how many parts there were!

While I assume, like all things, that once you start doing it you quickly gain a greater understanding of what each bit does and why it all fits together like it does - I concur - not for me! Have triggered on the SNZH and some bits, see if I can manage dial/hand swaps etc first I think!

I have to clean, lube and then put the fucker back together now. This could be a disaster.

YouTube is your f(r)iend...

Very impressive, mate... 👍

Say that when its all back together and ticking.

I'm hooked. Thoroughly enjoyable.

If there are any bits left over lighter is better, right? 😅

@Stonehedge

And bang... There's a bit missing!

Lol

Use gaffa tape Dan!

I have no idea where that part went! I know for a fact it was in one of the trays and now it simply isn't there!

Can't have gone far. I blame the cat.
