[quote="alvintancy"]Any1 knows where i can get above mentioned fully Mod or must i purchase separately the watch and the dial and get some1 to Mod for me,

The "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod is really tempting me :cry:

the stock model is currently OOS at most places, Twinkle's Electronic has yet to get back to me on the new stocks

unless there are those who decided to flip their 'already' modded FF ;)[/quote]

I think mine will arrive by this week....hopefully....the design was actually come up by me and vince but too bad for the first FF dial...everyone prefer the Polish design.

Luckily Vince help out and liase with Jake and we finally come out with this 2nd version FF

there's a whole thread in WUS managed by ditoy_eagle where you can join the wait list, the queue is already very long so If you're in a hurry better source the dial from SC bros here who got spare or pre-owned..good luck!

Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod

Hey Guys,

Sorry for rehashing an old thread. 2 quick qns if I may.

1. Can someone point me to the watch maker that performed the dial transplant in Singapore ? Can the same watch maker paint the tip (jus the tip) of the sec hand red in colour ?

2. Anyone knows where I can get blue sailcloth straps to match the SNZH53 ?

Actually thats 3 qns :lol:

Many Thanks !

Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod

Yobokies's prices are on the higher side and unfortunately, service from JakeB is many many times better than yobokies. Just IMHO. And will not deal with yobokies if I can. That just my preference. Don't know about other bros here.

Sold my original fff a year back, suffered from seller's remorse and now i'm back with another, on a leather nato this time round!

Amazing that a simple dial change can bring the whole timepiece to another level. :)

Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod

I own 2 of the FFF mods. One is the black dial with no date,the other is the sunburst blue. These are to go to watches during fridays and weekends.

I thoroughly enjoy both watches but just one small issue. The dials seem to be doing something to the date wheel so every now and then I will make the occasional trip down to K2. However, I may be the only one suffering this problem.

No pics for now as both pieces at my CO house. Will make a point to take some pics to post.
