Just for fun I tossed my FFF Mod on an Uncle a Seiko Razorwire on the Timegrapher. Just a quick health check it’s been a while since I modded it. Plan to wear it tomorrow and wasn’t sure whether or not I should trust it. Shook it a bit, wore it an hour, first reading dial up - looks pretty good!   |

nice daily rate 😊
but I'm curious : is this low amplitude normal for a modern Seiko movement? or is it just because the winding was not much?

Can't see it all, but that appears to be a nice looking mod.

Can't see it all, but that appears to be a nice looking mod. It's a classic Fifty Five Fathoms mod. Original style dial from Dagaz, the iconic version, with their hand set. Under the hood a 7S36 and the day wheel covered.
Uncle Seiko Razorwire braclet. Seiko red second hand off some model from my spares drawer to compliment and draw out the red "FF" on the dial. Crystaltimes domed sapphire and I forget whose insert. OEM Seiko SNZF17 bezel and insert
