Custom Seiko 5 Sports "Samurai / Sea Urchin" Mod
Up for sale is a custom-modified Seiko 5 Sports diver build.
This build takes the classic blacked-out Seiko 5 case profile and upgrades it with iconic OEM/aftermarket Seiko parts for a high-end look and strong lume performance.
Key Features & Modifications:
Movement: Seiko/TMI NH35 automatic movement (features hacking and hand-winding capabilities).
Dial: Authentic Seiko Prospex Samurai dial in black with bold applied indices.
Hands: Classic SNZF17 "Sea Urchin" handset.
Bezel Insert: SKX-style dive bezel insert.
Case: Matte black PVD finished case with exhibition case back showing the NH35 rotor.
Lume: Excellent low-light visibility on dial indices and hands.
While it started as a Seiko 5 Sports base, it has undergone significant component swaps combining parts from various Seiko models and aftermarket components:
Movement Upgrade: Upgraded to an NH35A movement, visible through the case back.
Dial Swap: Swapped to a Seiko Prospex Samurai dial (featuring the Prospex 'X' logo and 200\text{m} text marked 4R35).
Hand Set: Swapped to SNZF17 (Sea Urchin) hands.
Bezel Insert: Upgraded to an SKX-style countdown/diver bezel insert. I didn't modify it, it came already nodded.
Condition:
In very good condition overall with minimal signs of wear. Movement is running smoothly and keeping time as it should.
Watch on fitted black NATO strap (as shown in photos). Extra grey NATO strap supplied. I may have a steel bracelet that can fit but cant seem to put my hands on it at the moment. If I find it its free gratis.
