Default I am SO IN for a 928 watch!

The time has come to gauge the level of commitment. We need 50 buyers to get this moving. Please select the appropriate option in the poll.

If you want MULTIPLE DIALS or WATCHES, please post with a count.


If you didn't follow the discussion and are wondering how a dial can get into a case, the way it works is you acquire the watch you want and send the watch and the dial to one of several well-respected Seiko watch modifiers, who will put it all together for you for a reasonable fee. I've have many custom Seikos assembled from parts, it's an inexpensive, fun, and rewarding hobby that results in a unique, beautiful, and rugged timepiece.

Any questions can go into the initial thread!

Here is the dial design:

Custom hand sets and prices here.

Here is a list of Seiko 7S26 diver models. Searching Google or eBay for these models will give you an idea what diver cases are will fit this dial. Remember this dial requires a 4 o'clock crown, it will not work with a 3 o'clock crown!

I'm in for one #9. Ready to pay whenever. Cool project. Never thought that design buy concensus could work this smoothly.

And that is only in 4 hours. Not bad in my book, but I still like to use a rotary dial phone.

oooh. Just clicked on the link for the custom hands, and I liked the Blue second hand shown. It would match great with my 928 colour! (Should change my avatar from my old 928 to my current 928)
