Waspy 306 Posted July 12, 2018 SKX031 Case, bezel and hands replaced from Pepsi variant. New Insert and crystal. Original movement was very tired so the movement was replaced from a not very old Seiko 5 After-market solid link bracelet but original end pieces. So the only original bits left are the dial and end pieces (Trigger's broom scenario) LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This project started a few years ago and has only just been finished (with help from @Rolie), bits have been collecting in my box for ages. The end links are not solid i.e. they are not SELs. The original Seiko bracelet was one of those cheap folded things. The new bracelet has solid links, I bought it from eBay quite a while ago, I forget the seller, but the end pieces did not fit so I used the originals. The SKX031 was discontinued many years ago but good ones fetch very good prices on eBay probably because they are not common, they are smaller than the regular SKX range, they don't have '5' printed on the dial and it was the closest thing Seiko made that was a homage to a Submariner (the crown is at 3 for starters) But for some weird reason the lug width is 22mm. 20mm would have been more suitable IMHO. There is also a Pepsi variant with a dark blue dial and Pepsi insert, I had one that I used for parts. Edited July 12, 2018 by Waspy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
