The finishing on that case is beautiful. The sapphire and how it plays with the colors from the dial is stunning. I like the fact that its 20mm bracelet too, it looks a lot sleeker. and I have to commend you on taking the time and grinding the 1.7mm off, it sure was worth it, and truly well done. On paper the watch should be too big for a 6.5 inch wrist, but in reality it fits you quite well. This is true watch modding, skill, and artistic sense. Well done, great video my friend!

Good morning Michele. Good job. I also own a Marine Master 300 in titanium by Proxima which I modified with the inclusion of a Seiko dial. I must say that I am literally in love with this object although I also find it a little excessive in thickness, which is why I would like to proceed with the thinning: I would therefore ask you if it is possible for you to post a video showing how you worked. Thank you in advance. Leonardo

You have to fully disassemble the watch in order to not damage any components. After you have well heated the case with an hairdryer, you have to pry the back plate out with a thin blade. Be careful, you will certainly scratch the case. Don't try to do that if you have not the right tools for re-polish the case back surface afterwards.

Buongiorno Michele. Ottimo lavoro. Posseggo anch'io un Marine Master 300 in titanio by Proxima che ho modificato con l'inserimento di un dial Seiko. Devo dire di essere letteralmente innamorato di questo oggetto sebbene anche io lo trovi un tantino eccessivo nello spessore, motivo per cui vorrei procedere all'assottigliamento: ti chiederei quindi se ti è possibile di postare un video che mostri come hai operato. Grazie anticipatamente. Leonardo.

Ciao, purtroppo un video del procedimento non ce l'ho. Quello che devi fare è: preparare l'orologio smontato e protetto in ogni sua parte delicata con del nastro isolante. Con una lama sottile fai leva sulla piastra presente sul retro della cassa, è incollata sul fondo e lavorandoci un po' viene via. Ora la cassa sul retro avrà un leggero bordo lasciato dalla piastra che hai rimosso. Prima con una mola o un utensile rotativo tipo dremel, elimina quanto più materiale possibile dal bordo (circa 1mm). Poi rifinisci a mano con una pietra o delle striscie di carta abrasiva incollate su un supporto rigido. Io ho usato una pietra (quelle grandi per affilare i coltelli, grana molto fine

@@zervinlim8709 the chapter ring on the bottom has a step of 28mm of diameter. Usually Seiko dial has a diameter of 28.5mm. So the chapter ring will sit higher on the dial and you won't be able to close the case. For that reason you have make the back of the chapter ring flat by filing down the step (easier way) the chapter ring is made of brass and not much accuracy is required. Otherwise you have to reduce a bit the dial diameter, but you have to be much more accurate for doing a precise work.
