Seiko SRPG35 new case?

Hello,

So I cracked the hardlex crystal pretty good while working. First hardlex I have broken. Rather than swap out the crystal, was thinking of ordering a titanium case with the sapphire crystal and just putting the insides from the above watch into it. Is this possible? I’m thinking a 39mm case would do it. My question is also because it is a screw down crown on the new case and the above model is not, is it simply as swapping the stem? Would appreciate any thoughts/feedback.

Tuna SBBN045 bezel wobbling

Hi everyone,

Does anyone happen to know how to fix this bezel wobbling issue when I turn it?

For context, I wanted to increase the bezel’s resistance, I opened the bezel and pried the click spring a little bit more and put the bezel back on. Then the wobbling issue has appeared since then. I tried to align the O-ring inside the bezel multiple times but it didn’t help at all.

Would like to ask for your suggestions before sending it to the authorized dealer for service.

Thank you…

Is the OEM rubber strap for SRP777 worth it?

I recently got a turtle, and I’m looking forward to getting some scars on this thing.

Anyway, the seller I bought it from only had it on the OEM Seiko bracelet. I’m glad I have the bracelet, but I am planning to get a rubber strap for it (leaning Trop…
