I am the client for the watch in the video. I am rather new to watch modding and I rather enjoy the color scheme of the Rolex GMT Pepsi. I could have purchased a new Rolex (could not find one) and I could have purchased a fake Rolex. I did not want to do that. Instead, I decided to mimic the color scheme of the Rolex Pepsi with a Seiko. I have two Seikos', a 2nd gen Orange Monster and the SK 007 Dive watch. I felt that Usman created a unique, great looking watch that is exactly what I wanted. I must say that based on the comments below, I might look into a 12 hr. bezel. Frankly, I did not realize that was an option, thanks for the tips regarding that. In closing, I felt that the video was fantastic and it was fun watching my watch being built...
I think the 24h indication looks much better and if you want a reason for it you can just use it as an AM PM to 24h converter. But not all has to make sense in the watch hobby :)
Nice work... professional and very clean~! After retirement from the Boeing Company I worked as a professional watchmaker for about 10 years specializing in Swiss made mechanical watches... Rolex mostly. However, I have nothing against Seiko and your watches look very fine~!
Drinking a Pepsi, wearing a Pepsi, gorgeous watch. Nothing like a domed sapphire crystal to really make a watch look impressive. I put domed sapphire crystals on two Casio Duros which really made a big difference.
Beautiful video. I feel really compelled to build my own Seiko Mod. I’d been collecting pieces and tools for the last 2 years. I’m sure that for the end of Summer 2021 mine will be built. I was not very fond of the Pepsi bezel until I saw you drinking an actual Pepsi. Thanks for sharing!!!
Nice work. Question: do standard factory torques exist for the case cover on water resistant watches ? I'm new to seeing these builds and mod's, and just curious.
The Rolex day date must be part of the list. It can pass as sporty or dressy and is also within the price range of some of the listed pieces. Even within rolex, it's somehow of in a world of its own
How do you know which Seiko mod builders are reputable? Where can I find them. Looking for this watch but black dial and ceramic bezel. 41 or 42mm preferably
It sounds a bit loosen when turning the bezel, not sure if you having same issue there. it happened with my mod as well, I later found out replacing a slightly larger size (0.8mm) bezel gasket would fix the problem for the aftermarket bezel.

@@TheDubaiExpat Good advice, thank you...
just get an aftermarket rolex dial and put it in the seiko movement/case
I can sell you the same Rolex pepsi new.. let me know if you interested
@@TheDubaiExpat how do i reach you.
What a masterpiece of videography. So relaxing to watch.

For a professional like yourself to compliment on this mod made my day

Story telling & editing, just like any mini film is just too good here Niko 😃👍 the final touch Usman drinking the Pepsi is top stuff. Good one
Seiko case is what make it Legendary..
Amazing! Beautiful job and love the reward at the end. Well deserved
*The can of Pepsi at the end was **________** * ***_(add your favorite "great" adjective)_*
loved it
Phenomenal
lol
Went flat
...the final touch that made the whole video just sublime.
That ladies and gentlemen is ART
Great work by your mate. I modded my SKX. Replacing the seconds hand is by far the hardest part of the project. 🤙🏼
It was the hard thing for me to learn! You need such a steady hand for this
Skilled hands. Thanks to the watch maker Mr. Usman.
Beautiful video and beautiful result
One of the greatest watch videos I ave seen. Love your story telling skills.

Thank you :)!
Did you build your watch?
Although I'm not into mods much, the wrist shot in the beginning of the Rolex Pepsie really made me want one and so was worth watching this video 😜
Awesome. Just ordered one. To me this is not a Fake Rolex, but a really fun and great looking Seiko.
More of these videos needed!!
Loved watching this video. Excellent videography. We need to see more.
Love it, i fell asleep to this, now its morning and im rewatching it
xD
You should do a Pepsi 12hr bezel insert instead of the 24hr so it could still be functional as a second time zone. Great build though!
Background music and videography getting better, keep it up. Thanks for the video.
Love and respect from India.
Expert Level. Superb Keep it up.
That would be good with a Seiko GMT.
Nice touch with the Pepsi.
All I need now is a pool table 😁
What workmanship!
Excellent workmanship and interesting video. Thanks for sharing.
I have a custom all black one.
It’s a sort of a must have watch for a collector
Really enjoyed watching this!
Watch looks a million bucks!
This video is so relaxing, oh and nice mod you're a god your craft.
Cool modding of another Seiko TDE! Keep it up
Lol, love the lab coat. I thought, oh okay, this guy is a legit watch maker... Then I see the crystal press etc and thought, oh okay, maybe not lol
Lol! But focus on the final result :p
Gotta admit this looks better than all black look one
Not gonna lie, it felt like Dexter at the start of the video. Preparing to kill someone.
xD
Hahaha
Lmfao
Great sharing. Thanks 🙏
Nice work. Question: do standard factory torques exist for the case cover on water resistant watches ?
I'm new to seeing these builds and mod's, and just curious.
Really beautiful ☺️

Fantastic build, stunning looking and the way you made your video was great, what a pleasure to watch.
Great new intro and cool Video!
Excelente Vídeo, una obra de Arte, I love it.

Really nice mod. Could you tell us
what kind of strap you are using? Would like to have that on my Seiko.
Thank you.
Very nice mod! Congrats
Good job ! Very nice !
Amazing Video, Music & Skills!
I guess Seiko should push out Pepsi Bezel on their GMT line-up.
Where's the GMT hand ? Am I missing something?
Beautiful 😍
Incredible
how did you take the crown/pin out after installing n aligning the hands, before case installation ?
Nice mod! Love it. Can you specify What model of Seiko5 is this? Thanks
How do you know which Seiko mod builders are reputable? Where can I find them. Looking for this watch but black dial and ceramic bezel. 41 or 42mm preferably
Very interesting. Thanks
Absolutely gorgeous 👌🏻🙏🏻
Good video, if I can ask were did you get the better glass Sapphire crystal from and the Bracelet, thanks
the hole so close gives me such terror feeling lmao imagine losing a piece xD
xD
Wow really nice mod I’m just wondering is there another seiko it could be modified
Been wanting to do this exact project for a VERY long time.
Whats the bracelet?
Beautiful watch!!!
What circumference do you have around your wrist? I'm looking to buy a modded seiko but they seem pretty small. Thankful for any help!
Super!
Wow! Can he or you make a video of the seiko in a gmt batman? 😁
I would've personally liked a pearl or white dial, I'd buy that
Impressive, great modification, your work is the best and very professional.
Nice video! but did you get rid of the bezel gasket at 8’48?
No, it comes with 2. One was pre-installed
so fulfilling
nice sharing!
Great !!👍👍👍👍
It sounds a bit loosen when turning the bezel, not sure if you having same issue there. it happened with my mod as well, I later found out replacing a slightly larger size (0.8mm) bezel gasket would fix the problem for the aftermarket bezel.
No kidding!👌👍
Where did u get the jubilee bracelet from? For the srpd
Beautiful
Please do a giveaway Mr.Niko @thedubaiexpat
Nice one!!!
Looks good other than the red hand, and chromed bezel, and aftermarket bracelet (the original one is nice!)
where is the GMT hand?
Seiko realy goes back in time
MISTA MISTA !! I need a bepsiii 👌🏽👍🏼🇺🇸
I also hit a custom seiko gmt but my crown is on 3. Don't know why yours isn't. I'd also prefer a ceramic bezel. But it's nicely done
Billardtisch als Werkbank, köstlich! :'D
