Primarily I always wanted to make my FFF hackable as well as having a world timer. I tried with Mr Goh to have the 4r36 movement implant to the the SNZH, it is not a direct swap due to the stem issue.

So I am thinking, can swap my FFF bezel insert, hands and dial to this world timer. make the FFF hackable.

While the worldtimer be swap to my SNZH and change the dial to numbered indices dial and make it look more like complicated.

Have the best of both worlds... haha

See if I can simplfied...

Currently I got a FFF (SNZH). Charcoal black modern dial, lume bezel, blancpain style hands, red tipped second hands. movement 7s36.

1) Seiko FFF
2) Yatto's world timer

Migrate the Charcoal black modern dial, lume bezel, blancpain style hands, red tipped second hands to the world timer.
Summary = FFF with 4r36 movement (hackable)

Move the worldtimer bezel, to the SNZH, change the dial to full numbered dial, use back SNZH sword hands.
Summary = A worldtimer with a more complicated look. (due to numbered dial)

Find the plain black leather serves to show off the already busy bezel and dial.

My only concern now is the chapter ring of the world timer... may need to spray it black... :s13:

Changed the strap for my dad's bambino. From K2. 21mm :)

The others were the aftermarket alligator strap 20mm and the original strap from orient.

The orient buckle is wider than the strap from K2 but I put it on anyway.....to complete the look.



Wristshot. I think the brown strap fits the watch much better!

The world timer is hackable but not screw in crown and certified 200m right. If can find one seiko which is true diver watch to mod think more worthwhile?
Click to expand...

Same as the SNZH, not screw in crown and 100m too.

I cannot think of any seiko that can mod as close to blancpain FF besides SNZH and SNZF. :D

Need to think of next better options to mod... haha

I actually got some other mod ideas being KIV

1) Buy a JDM SARB and insert the yobokies milgauss hand set to it.
2) insert the milgauss handsets to the bambino (yobokies cfm can fit)
3) buy mm300 hands and insert into my pepsi sumo
4) change skx007 bezel to murphy bezel, bracelet to wjean jubilee

A few more i cannot rem... haha
