Excited for the Nintendo Switch and Zelda to be released today! Freaking hype!

 

[lyrrom]

just curious, what kind of money would people be willing to pay to have a 7S swapped out for a 4R in your seikos to make it hackable and windable, assuming the movement is provided as well? $200? $500?

The more I see the Master Control date, the more I prefer it to the Chrono.

I don't care much about hacking/winding.

Btw, I thought it is easier to source for NH35.

如果能够找到金线车边，深蓝皮带的话，绝对好搭。
。。。可惜，这样的皮带不容易找。。。

$200 is reasonable if it includes a SARB059 crown* with appropriate stem.

actual cost (based on consumer prices for parts)
New NH36 (4r36) movt from DLW -$65
labour cost @ K2 - $35 ($0 if just do it yourself)
New SARB059 crown -$50

" e.g you want to swop in a NH36 into a SKX007.. you will need to use either an aftermarket crown/steam or the SARB059 crown with aftermarket stem
