Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod
Now CEO mention, I find there is a bit of different between the dials.







One is Fifty-four and the other is Fifty-five

I guess they are the same dial design but different series? :?:

The history is, there's 2 different forums that created the dial, 1 created 54 and another 55.



They look the same except different text. Now I don't know if the hour indices is raised or not. Need to check this.

Actual dial photos from Jake









I think the watch picture here is quite deceiving, there's no raised hour indices. LOL. I'm guessing it's the lume that's raised.

I think the polish forums was very unpleased with Jake lol. If you go see the last few pages of the gmtforum.pl



They think Jake just willingly took their design and resell.

wow, these people really so hardcore abt their own design. Well, their argument is our gain now that the dials were shipped. :lol:
Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod

Do u know the length of the strap? Is it 75/115mm?


Ok, just an update, they replied my email with the length of 120 X 80mm with seven sizing adjustment holes. 8-)



ps. why are we allowed to only embed 1 quote within each other. kinda annoying.
Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod
Ok, I can either let the nested quotes manifest into a downward spiral of nested quotes or limit to 1.



I'm trying to find a way to force it to take the last quote but it's not possible, I will increase the limit of nested quote to maybe 3-4, forcing to take only the last quote is likely a code change and seems like PHPBB may not be able to support it at this time.
Re: "Fifty fathoms" Seiko snzh57 mod
Too much drama.... that's why I stay out of all these.



However, I do agreed that you guys really have good taste. That's one swee dial and would love to see your complete mod watch when it is ready in person.



I'm currenty restricting myself for a big hoot so am staying focus on my goal..... honestly, I'm a little tempt! :lol: :lol:

YAH exactly... I think they misunderstood that Jake took their design and "gave" it to the other forums.



Anyway, it's all for the better what, if you wana claim credit on your dial design, put your bloody logo and spoil the whole design.... :roll:
