P_Diddy Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Hi, this question is being aimed at the Modders who build their own franken watches: Seiko movements are very reliable, would it practical to use the Seiko diver watch movement and will it fit into a rep sub case? If it does fit [with adjustment], then replacement hands, dial and bezel would be required to make a reliable rep sub, has anyone tried this? Thanks for your comments/opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 A Miyota 8215 swap into a Sub w/ an asian movement would be one possiblity. With any kind of luck, hand sizes would work, dial feet may be in the same place. The 8215 is very dependable. Next is a Seiko diver: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...=tab%3DWatching Add a set of hands from www.mkii.com- the mercedes hands for Seiko and just enjoy the heck out of the watch- great cheap beater. I'm thinking about doing this one myself. But I need another watch like a hole in the head... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
