Could you elaborate a bit? Or post some pictures of mods you made?
Yeah so an example of throwing on aftermarket parts:
Start with your base watch, I picked up a cheap Invicta dive watch like so https://files.catbox.moe/bnxgcp.jpg
Slap on some aftermarket hands, bezel, faced, and sand the bracelet for a nice brushed finish. https://files.catbox.moe/mo52xw.jpg
This is a watch restoration I was attempting. Did a poor job but learned quite a bit. https://files.catbox.moe/9bv3pa.jpg https://files.catbox.moe/2kwaka.jpg
If you're interested, check out /r/seikomods. Reddit has a pretty awesome community for it.
Nice not aware of this little niche hobby. I prefer not wearing watches, personally, but thanks for the insight, that's pretty cool.
