Here some pics of a service I did on a womans watch.
I placed a 1 eurocent coin next to it to compare it.
The diameter of the coin is 16.27 mm (0.64 inch)

Seiko SKX007 extreme modding
This time modding of a Seiko SKX007. This very popular Seiko is often subject of modding, because parts are easy obtainable.

Changing the dial with one with round indices and Mercedes style hands I was rather pleased with the result

Russian 1980 Moscow Olympic Games
I found in an auction this beaten up Russian watch. I am rather fond of the movements so I thought I make a bid and take my chances.
Here is what I received:
Van Poljot Olympics 1980 |
After I opened it up and dismantled the watch, I found a fine russian Poljot movement.
The dial has suffered over the years, but still has its charmes. It turns from eggplant purple to brown, depending on the reflecting of the light.
After polishing the case, changing the crystal and buffing the hands it turned out quite nice.
The movement has had an overhaul and is ticking like in its glory days.
Build of a black big beast…
In the hollidays I assembled this one…I kinda like it so I think I will keep this one.
