Got a new Seiko SKX007 modified by Yobokies a few days ago.
Great service, outstanding work and fast shipping

Yobokies have a lot of parts for the SKX007, so it was really fun choosing different parts

- Black clean dial with date window at 4:30
- Sterile aluminium chapter ring
- DOXA look-alike hands
- Domed sapphire crystal with double AR-coating
- Planet Ocean inspired bezel insert
- William Jean Super Oyster Type-II bracelet

I wanted a black date wheel with white numeral, but that was unfortunately a no-go. Im pending an orange nato just to mix it up

What do you guys think?

Thats cool! Will they mod any Seiko?

Nice looking watch! How much did the mods cost? Do you have a link to a web site?
Best wishes

I bought the watch new at Yobokies. Payed approx $300 + shipping for a new SKX007 with OEM Seiko diver rubber straps, including the parts and work for the modification. Also got a black Maratac Zulu for free

The bracelet however is a William Jean product, so I had to order that separately.

If you want a modification done by Yobokies, please take a look at his photobucket site and send him an e-mail if you would like to order. He is truly one of the good guys!

If you want the Super Oyster bracelet, you can order it from William Jean`s eBay store. The bracelet have SEL, screwed links and OEM Seiko clasp (no diver extension, though) and taper from 22/20mm. A really great bracelet!

Cheers

At first glance I said, that's no Seiko! It looked like a Marathon watch to me at first. But it works nicely. Very clean and casual. Looks like a winner to me!
