@@ashen99 come on I work on my own watches and it's not easy. now I mean no disrespect to you. but it's a lot of fun to work on them. but don't poke fun at the guy
It's so cool to see the watch maker beeing an watch enthusiast for SEIKO like that. That giggle when he got the bezel on is just priceless☺️❤️ Und du kannst sie jeden Tag tragen! Ein richtiger Daily Beater ist das!
@@customseikowatches1911 So awesome!!! Isn't the world a tiny little place? Ha,ha!!! I always keep my Seiko's in honour. I don't know what it is but I just love my Seiko's that I have. They give me so much confidence, when I wear them. Maybe it's because, we as watch enthusiasts feel the heritage and legacy and can appreciate that much more then an average person🤷🏻♂️
My two favourite parts are when you stick a screwdriver into the movement to get it out of the case and when you jam a steel case back opener under the bezel to prise it off with no protection for the case.
I like that you can get something different by doing this. Not pretending to be a Rolex. Clearly still showing the movement and where it's come from but just making it look like a Rolex. I think this is a really cool idea. I know nothing about watches so wouldn't have a clue about your processes but I really like the Kermit and the Pepsi. Two of my favourite Rolex's, I might have to reach out to you. :)
nkuwan You are so well-informed about luxury watches. You've obviously done your due diligence and the comparison to the US is very informative...because of course, I live in New York. thank you very much
Am American and I find eastern accents and enunciation captivating to listen to. Sapphire is heavily accentuated to sound like Sir- Fire 🔥. Equally impressive was the step by step transformation of a mundane seiko5 to an award winning Rolex iteration.

As a total watch noob, I wish you would not have cut some of the video so I can see exactly what you're doing. For example when removing the dial face, I don't know what you did, where there any latches or hinges you had to unbuckle? Or do you just use a tool to pry it out? That 1 second of video footage could have explained so many important things IMO. Still, thanks very much for the time and patience taken in making this video, it still helped me understand a lot of the basics. Have a great day :)
This usually doesn't happen. This was my first time building on camera so in trying to ensure camera sees my steps, I neglected the blue dial. Anyways it was not being used in this watch so it's OK, I threw it away :)
@@customseikowatches1911 Bad practice is bad practice, it was ugly to see. Your further excuse is the perfect depiction of what's wrong with humans and the consequential effect on the planet.
Well done! Nice job. I try to do the same with Seiko 5 SNZF15K1 but the bezel insert i got was not the right size. Anyway..... Can you show me a link where i can get one bezel insert for my watch? Thank you in advance.

He turned a Seiko into a Seiko.
That’s my sentiments exactly.
with some Seiko mods...
I was thinking that, Mercedes hands and a green ceramic insert do not make a Rolex lol
It's not my thing either but he never said it was anything other than a Seiko...
@@theaussiewhinger It's the title of the video, Modding Seiko into Rolex.
He's the roughest watch maker I have seen so far in my life. I wouldn't let him touch any vintage watches...

It would be nice at the end of video inform everyone the total cost of the mod. I believe most audiences would be curious to know.
1 dollar.
At least 3
@@vladonebotos Thanks for posting the link. I've just checked out some of the modded pieces and, I have to say, the prices are quite modest.

@@DANTHETUBEMAN ok
This is filmed so well, not a lot of cuts, tons of explaining. Thanks!!
You have hands of a man who has worked. I respect that.

Das ist etwas besonderes!!!
Aaargh.. Autsj.. There is a dial stuck under that crystal press when pressing the crystal. A bit roughly build, but a nice watch. Enjoy it.
At first i thought hes gonna ruin the watch, but the end result is amazing😍
Yes it looks fantastic, much better than the original Seiko 5 :)
You underestimate me 😂
@@customseikowatches1911 stfu
13:10... that’s the sound that makes every watch lover die.
😂😂
Haha it made me 😫😖
i cringed during the entire video.

We learn by teaching, or sarcasm...lol
The glass trick though
You mean when he gently lifts the movement with a tool that works great for the job and when he doesn't damage the watch and removes the bezel?
@@davidmcguire6043 no, maybe you’re thinking of a different video.

That was really grate job ! Thank you for sowing.
Now turn a Rolex into a Seiko.
That’s incredible. Didn’t know people modded their watches like this. I’d hire you to mod one of my watches! You’re that good 😊
Hi Niko!
It’s an interesting result. I felt a little sorry for the blue dial that was under the press... 😉
Best regards,

Thanks Claus. Ups I just noticed that ;)

Professionalism at it’s highest level! Great Job!
I have an skx I built like that on a bond and it gets more compliments than my actual submariner
very slick looking watch
Watching the dial get dragged around by the crystal press the whole time :(

@@TheDubaiExpat Thank you very much for the time you sped answerig me.
Is the rubber included or do you need to buy it seperate?
Can i ask for the reason to change a already good looking watch into something else?
Can you help me? I have the same Seiko. I would like try to do the same modding. Where can i buy the ceramic bezel?
You’re a Genius . I really like the result.
İ really dont understand why you need this customization. İ think first is perfect. Ok thats also perfect but i decide first original design.
Beautiful watch
Excelente video, How Much for the Watch.
Do you have the link to where you buy your parts?
Very good and professionelle. Where i can bye your watches? Regards Roland
Just wondering whats their WR bar? Can you swim with it?
wats the green stuff called you used to pick the hands with ??
Talk about a Frankstein... like it !
Its a SEIKOEX 👍🏼 looks great !
I know it is old video but where you find that crystal ?
Perfectly done. Loved the end result.
It would look great on a Crafter Blue rubber strap!
One question
From where you are buying the dial from Rolex ?
Thanks 🙏
the watch looks awesome!
That was so much fun Niko! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Hi guy ! Can you say me what is the tools do you use for put the Needles? Have you a link for buy it?
Thx you a lot have a nice day guy !
modding it nice watching from Sharjah
Can you do this if you start with a Seiko 5 dress watch, i.e.one without the rotating bezel?
Cant find him on YT ir IG. Did his channel get taken down?
Is it possible to turn the bezel?
Great mod, subbed to the channel
beautiful mod
Not bad Niko, looks good.
Very nice! I prefer the Hulk, but that's only a minor difference
Very cool ! It took you 15 min to do that . Very good job !
Nicely Modified.
Does this tamper with water proofing?
Great video how much did it cost you?
We built it for the video together. I am not exactly sure how much Usman normally charges for one. I assume something around 400-500€. BR Niko
I also make SEIKO MOD,
I can't clean it like this ...
Respect to you.
How come no after market can get the shade of the Kermit bezel identical to the Rolex 2007 one.
That would be nice.
Do you have a link to get the tools from
Superb work and a fascinating insight!
You gotta admit, this guy is a gangster. He’s like a bull in a China shop with the watch handling skills.

Hello! I searched for SRPE63K1 model in Google and it's showed me only versions without bezel. Is your SRPE63K1 was modified before?
I’d like to buy one of those dials to suit the NH35 but I cannot find one anywhere.
Very cool video!!
any idea where to get all of the parts?
I enjoyed your video. 👍
is there a list of parts used?
Nice!
Where did you get that oyster steel style bracelet??
It's a miltat bracelet. available on Amazon
@@customseikowatches1911 thanks!
do you know where I can get these parts?
Looks good.
Will you modd similar model & how much it cost? Thks
Awesome video! Where do you buy your parts from?

If you want a watch with everything a Rolex has ...buy a Rolex !
I have an SKX031J I’m wanting to modify. I’m also considering building my own SKX models for fun. How interesting!
What bezel and insert are you using in this build? Where did you purchase it?
It's not stated in the description. Hope you'll updated there
most likely from DLW watches, and the bracelet from strapcode
@@rhysthomas2869 You mean DLW.. 👍👌✌
what really would be cool is to mod a Rolex into a Seiko 5
Are the watchesfor sale
How can I contact you to buy one ?
hey man, customseikowatches1 on instagram
A jubilee strap, exhibition style back with additional sapphire crystal would be most beautiful accompaniments to your excellent work sir👍💯🎉✔️
What is the base watch that you used to mod it?
The way he used a screwdriver to pry out the movement made my heart hurt a little bit
I think that is ok as long as u do it lightly, I'm more concerned on how the dial got crushed under the press at 9:43...

Well no one is going to mistake it for a Rolex but it is a nice mod and a definite aesthetic improvement.
