design your perfect watch

I would change the dial to blue and keep the rectangular markers but change to white and keep the chrome coloured outline around them



White snowflake hands but with a chrome/stainless edge



Instead of a black bezel insert it would be a blue one in this design



I will keep the crown at 4 but rather than an automatic movement I would use a SII VH31 Sweep Second Quartz or a similar one that is better  . This movement is the one that is in my Aragon and rather than move every second it moves in  ¼  second increments.

It would arrive in a walnut wooden box and would include a chunky monkey stainless bracelet and a distressed looking brown leather strap both of which would be 22mm to fit the lugs

I think I have covered everything.... How many orders can I be expecting ? ?

SeikoJohn wrote:@domecurb seeing as your knowledge of watches especially Seiko is a lot more advance than mine can I ask given the choice which quartz movement would you put in my watch and why ??  Or is the one I selected up to the job

SeikoJohn wrote:No hardship though changing a battery every couple of years so for me I would continue with the one I picked as it has a more smoother secondhand movement . Although the 9f sounds great me thinks it may increase the cost of production of my watch and I feel it only fair to my costs down for my customers.

i hope you are going to offer  a heavy discount to the members



Something like a 100% discount would be good as long as the postage is free.
