Hello!
I have recently won an auction for a Grand Seiko 5645-7010 in what seems to be great shape. However, unfortunately, it has an incorrect seconds hand - it's too short and has an indentation in the middle where it attaches to the pinion - where the original has a smooth circular surface at the attachment.
Now, as far as I know, basically all Seiko hands are compatible with each-other. However, the seconds hand on this watch(unlike the hour and minute hand which can be found on many LordMatics and King Seikos) appear to be somewhat unique, and the closest I have found I think is from Lucius Atelier, the Grand Seiko Dauphine mod hands, which I think might be a bit too big. Does anyone know of any modern or vintage Seiko watch with a similar seconds hand (not including other 56GS and 61GS watches).

Gotta be careful here. The underside of seconds changes in many Grand Seikos. The hand hole size is pretty much universal among mechanical Seikos and overlaps a lot of quartz models, but the flange design underneath makes a big difference in compatibility.
So, pull the seconds hand and post a photo. I'll see what else would work. If your identified replacement is too l8it can be clipped easily.
