Is this a mod or original? If it's a mod then I'm impressed. Thank you. This is a Seiko Neo Monster dial in a Orient case. Probably the last Orient mod for me. Orient uses an odd plastic spacer ring for the movement. It will only stay in place if the dial feet are secured on the movement. This makes it pretty much impossible to use dial dots to secure the dial in place. For this mod, I was luck, as the Seiko dial feet line up perfectly with the Orient movement/plastic spacer.

It's been said already, but I'm going to say it again - that's a stunning photo. What's the spec of this watch btw?

Wow, you are such a prolific modder, have opened my eyes to the range of possibilities. From busy (red and white hands on black dial) to super sterile.
Great stuff!

May I ask how you fit an ETA dial on the 007? Most ETA ones sold are 0.5-1mm larger.

May I ask how you fit an ETA dial on the 007? Most ETA ones sold are 0.5-1mm larger. There's a seller that has 28.5mm black dials. Remove the feet and use dial dots. Some of the Helenarou dials I use (29mm) I file down with a buck knife sharpening stone. Here's another one I finished yesterday:

That's a top class result, what's the spec on this one, I don't recognise it? I've got to say, the way you consistently produce these clean style but effective and appealing watch mods is very impressive. I can't think of anyone else who can match your eye for design quality, and to produce so many of this standard is humbling. Do you sell them or are they all for your own use?
