Seiko Turtle Mod

Love these reissue Turtles. You can't beat the value of these divers. Although I made a few changes to this 773, it retains the overall OEM vibe.


There are more & more aftermarket parts available and I've been hankerin' to another more extensive mod on this 779.



This includes "the mother of all domes".

The Pepsi bezel originally came from the 779 that was slated for modding.

The bracelet is a flattened shark mesh from Strapecode.
