The most recent change I’ve done is applying black Cerakote to its case and bezel.

I needed to remove the crystal (glass part of the watch) before sending it to the shop so I bought a crystal press. Removing it was easy, but putting it back was frustratingly hard. In the end, I asked one of the local shop watches to help me with this one.

Something I also learned was to use straps that have curved ends. I think it looks nicer than the straight ones.

Modding my Seiko SKX009 has been a blast.
