Seiko 6309-7040,Soxa Turtle

Howdy Folks

 

I had been searching for a while for 6309-7040 to mod and eventually found a good one.Paid a bit of money for it but it`s a nice example.This one was a sound watch but needed a bit of work

 

 

Swapped out the dial and hands with the Soxa style from Dagaz and gave it a good clean and polish up.The caseback still needs a bit of work but will finish it off soon

 

Anyway I`m very happy with the result.

It's a great mod and I hope you enjoy yours, it looks great!

 

If you want to do the Doxa bezel and/or fancy getting a beads of rice strap, you need to check out Harold at yobokies. Loads of seiko stuff and he is as good as gold with regards to service and reliability ;)

Cheers mate.

 

I seen the Bezel at Dagaz when I was ordering the dial and hands but wasn`t sure on how it would look.Looks good after seeing yours.

 

Mine is off to a new home.

 

 

Elp is going to be the new owner soon,we had been talking about this mod through pm`s and he has been looking for one for a while now.

Ahhhh...........the shark-mesh bracelet shot (aka the money shot?)

 

Changes the watch entirely (for the better), in my opinion.
