Might embark in this mod project

Recommended Posts

I'm thinking about modding my Seiko Atlas 211, I don't really like it so simplistic, so based on components found at Dagaz I just did a very rough and quick 5 minutes photoshop job to have an idea of what could be the result.

 

First Original Pic

Lol, well the pics on dagaz website were not actually photoshop friendly, specially the bezel which was taken in an elevated angle, so I could have work more

into fixing that painting by hand but as I said, this was just a quick job to see how it looks lol. I'm still not sure about the second hand tho, probably I would be replacing it with another option and maybe in blue

 

I'll be waiting for dagaz to reply about availability, compatibility and pricing :P

That looks good.

 

Not sure on the hands though are you able to try it with these just to see the difference.I would keep the second hand red looks good.

You are right Andy, looks better with the other hands.

Still not entirely convinced with the second hands I want something really cool like a ball watches style second hand in blue or even red but something with the decoration on the back of the hand

Yep thats better mate.

 

The seconds hand isn`t right though as you say.

 

I would keep it red there is enough blue with the dial and bezel.Maybe something a little smaller,red tipped silver stick,even keep the original and paint the tip red.

 

 

 

 

Looking good though keep us updated.
