Great job! Looks amazing! Big improvement from the stock one

Of course, ceramic insert and sapphire crystal is a step up and better...but looks-wise IMO I wouldn't say it looks better(subjective), it's just different than the stock build and I like both! Looks really nice! cool mod. SUBSCRIBED!

Nice. I'm with those saying that it doesn't really look better but it does look different. Now, having said that I wouldn't mind these mods myself but out of the box, the SRPD79 is easily one of the best looking watches made.

Hi there. This ones on a matte black PVD coin edge bezel - was from namokiMODS. I think I mention the parts in the video too. The inserts I suggest getting from dlw watches - they have the best finish (YM Black Ceramic), they have the strap and all parts for this style. I have since made a few more I’ll be sharing soon!

Thanks, of course I agree, I guess they are trying very hard to offer many options with the new 5 sports line but have to still keep to the $200 or so range, for now I'm pleased to be able to mod them!

love the video..both watches look fantastic. the one question i have (as a relatively new watch enthusiast ) can you make it so that this watch has a screw down crown when you are going through the mods that are available?
@svkwatches Жыл бұрын
Thanks! Yes it’s possible to change the case to a screw down crown too, I’ve done this here for example: svkwatches.ae/products/srpd79-blackout-sub-built-to-order?_pos=1&_sid=81ee253e1&_ss=r it just adds some cost for the case swap too, you can choose any case shape/design then too

@svkwatches2 жыл бұрын
As long as it’s a skx007 bezel you ordered it will fit - what he might mean is that the bezel insert won’t fit the standard, flat crystal. You’ll need a double dome sapphire (no bevel edge) do match the sloping bezel insert. Aside from that it’s about it

As a PADI Open Water Mixed Gas Certified Diver, I disagree. You could dive with this and the visibility would be just fine in open water situations. If you’ve never been 40-50 feet below the surf, you don’t know how bright it still is underwater (salt water). Now would I go 100 feet down with this, no, but a drift dive or shallow entry dive, yes, you’d be fine. The bigger question is “are you comfortable diving without a screw down crown?” - I’ve dived with my submariner and the screw down crown makes for a very safe choice…granted you’re talking $335 oops vs a $10,000 holy Fukk should something go wrong on the bottom.

Nice insight Christian, thanks! I’m no diver but when it’s hard to read the time in low light on the ground, I thought it’d be harder underwater
