Re: Seiko SG FFF Guild 2014

that lume pip is cut from a lume tape that I have. Its been there for 2 months already, enduring rain, shower, stuff..easy to replace...matching lume as the dials and hands...

:lol: :mrgreen: yeah... onli to realize that i had misinterpreted the meaning several hours later. u know... this word is so not commonly used, except for movie buffs, where they would be much familiar with Actors' Guild, Directors' Guild...etc. which often follows by the word Awards.

Re: Seiko SG FFF Guild 2014
I'd be happy to have a mini FFF "pageant" and compete who's got the hottest piece in the guild.



Perhaps a sponsor from some company for a small prize, to encourage the FFF spirit? Any thoughts?

The cosmetic "beauty-ness" can easily be bought by money.



To up the ante (gamble), the picture must be taken with an interesting back ground & a short two liner write up.



Can invite a semi-pro or pro photographer to be one of the judges (I have one or two contacts).



Any thoughts?

Chill is good too.



Got my strap from Ken's Vintage. Golden Landmark. Genuine Baby Croc on leather. $40 bucks with an inferior buckle.



But, yup, it's awesome looking.

Hello guys, got alot of questions before i send my 55 for modding.



1) 55 can do window at 4 oclock right? just to be safe. checking with you guys. http://www.10watches.com/apps/webstore/products/show/3486077

2) thinking of getting yobokies lumed bezel. but the current bezel will be destroyed in the process right? since it only changes the bezel insert and not the whole bezel? the bezel issit sapphire crystal? http://forums.watchuseek.com/f21/has-anyone-tried-yobokies-fff-new-lumed-bezel-insert-777132.html

3) anybody put chapter ring? need some ideas for chapter ring.

4) is there any difference between the dome sapphire(yobokies or 10watch 1 better?) and the stock hardlex in terms of curvature?



thanks alot guys. currently wearing it stock with black nato.

Yup, get the modern dial with date window at 4. This one is ok.



2) thinking of getting yobokies lumed bezel. but the current bezel will be destroyed in the process right? since it only changes the bezel insert and not the whole bezel? the bezel issit sapphire crystal? http://forums.watchuseek.com/f21/has-anyone-tried-yobokies-fff-new-lumed-bezel-insert-777132.html



I did mine, Mr Goh, K2, did a great job getting the stock bezel out without issue. But he told me not everytime is ok. Can break easily.



U mean the bezel insert, dunno is plastics or glass but definitely not sapphire.



3) anybody put chapter ring? need some ideas for chapter ring.



There is no chapter ring needed.



4) is there any difference between the dome sapphire(yobokies or 10watch 1 better?) and the stock hardlex in terms of curvature?



This will need the bros who changed to sapphire to answer. Mine on hardlex and going great.



thanks alot guys. currently wearing it stock with black nato.

Hi Vii,



Yobokies hand set comes without the color tip. You will need to pay a little more to get the color tip second hand. :D

hi stan. can advice where you procure your red tipped second hand? im kinda desperate. thinking if mr goh able to paint the stock seconds tip red. already bought the lumed bezel v2 and the same face as you. keeping the stock hour and minute hands as i think the seiko 1 look awesome. anyway does your bezel have any play on it? i scare after modding there might be some play on the bezel.

checked with yobokies. he only got the brushed version. i wanted like stock seiko version to match with the silver indices. brushed i scare will distract from the overall look. looks like 10watch is my only hope.
Re: Seiko SG FFF Guild 2014
I wonder if we are able to dip the second hand into red paint on our own...

Hi Chris,



I believe there are differences in wordings on the dials between Yobokies and Dagaz.

But it's still fun to do :)

Re: Seiko SG FFF Guild 2014
lumed bezel from yobokies damn disappointing. diamond marker isn't sharp at all. The 25, 50, 55 marker isn't even a proper rectangle and the 45 is badly done. waiting for his reply to sort it out.
Re: Seiko SG FFF Guild 2014
My lumed bezel is alright, oso from Yobokies. Just a little disappointed with the brushed hand sets as I can see the workmanship a little rough, even without using a loupe, I can see the slightly rough edges. :lol:



Anyway, good to see many are enjoying the FFF... maybe a group shot of all our FFFs as momento? :D
